DURHAM CAN

Durham CAN is based in institutions: congregations, associations, schools (both private and public), nonprofits, community health centers, and neighborhood organizations that share a concern for families and a tradition of faith and democracy.

They work to strengthen congregations and community institutions by developing the skills and capacity of their leaders to be change agents in the public process. Durham CAN creates a vehicle for ordinary families to have a powerful voice in community decisions that affect their lives, instead of leaving decision-making in the hands of a select few.

Durham CAN builds relationships of trust among people and institutions across Durham County, intentionally crossing boundaries of economics, race, age, religion, gender, sexual orientation and geography that divide our communities. Part of the dynamism of our work derives from a shared commitment to bring together individuals and families that typically do not know one another, and often do not know how to collaborate successfully.

CURANOPY

Curanopy is a ministry committed to providing a covering of care for our leaders. This ministry is particularly dedicated to those who have always taken care of us. We seek to offer a wide range of services, whose primary purpose is to care for spiritual, organizational and social leaders and caregivers."

RECOVERY COMMUNITY OF DURHAM

The mission of RCOD is to promote recovery, wellness, and citizenship through advocacy, education, and support in Durham, North Carolina. Recovery flourishes in supportive communities where recovering people are part of the solution. Recovery provides innumerable opportunities to heal, grow and be of service to others who are seeking support, care and resources. Find out more info at their website.

AGING well

Like the rest of the nation, Durham is experiencing a significant growth in the number and proportion of older adults due to longer life spans and aging baby boomers. This increase in the number of older adults will have a significant social and economic impact in Durham, but also presents an opportunity to embrace older adults as a vital asset in which they contribute their experience and leadership, while continuing to add economic diversity as employers/employees and consumers. Find out more info on their website.
