Vital Signs uses local knowledge to measure the vitality of a community and support action towards improving collective quality of life. Local data gathered through the program is used to support evidence-based, locally-relevant solutions to improve the quality of life at the community level. Vital Signs aims to inspire civic engagement, to provide focus for public debate, and to help a range of actors take action and direct resources where they will have the greatest impact.

In this webinar, you will hear from representatives from Fondation Quebec Philanthrope, Community Foundation of Southeastern Alberta, Guelph Community Foundation, and Rural Communities Foundation of Nova Scotia on how they used Vital Signs to engage with community and have been able to ‘take the pulse’ on community needs and areas of importance.

This webinar will help you; 

• Explore your own ways of participating in Vital Signs,
• Explore where to start, and
• Build relationships across the Community Foundation Network.
