This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. The first step in community building is knowing what needs attention and what should be celebrated. A community asset map gets people together to share their knowledge about their community. Learn about what a community asset map is, how to do one in your community and what steps to take next in order to build a kick-ass community.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
