Community Conscience-Welcome

Community Conscience
By: Ann Piasecki, M.A.
Public Affairs Communicator/Outreach Coordinator

Welcome to the Community Conscience blog. This column is dedicated to the promotion of authentic partnerships between businesses, schools, nonprofit organizations designed for the betterment of society as a whole--especially environmental and conservation initiatives--social service agencies, governmental entities, churches and the community at large. In this weekly column I intend to offer insights and perspectives on existing projects that demonstrate holistic and profitable ventures that benefit multiple groups at one time.


This column is not about destroying or dismantling the profit margins of existing corporations or businesses, nor is it about undermining individual/family financial opportunities. The key point to keep in mind is the word “ethics” and how it applies to corporate and administrative leaders as well as individual conduct with retailers, investments, tax responsibilities and tithing. This column is about financial equality for all community members.
At times I will also reveal my own intuitive innovations, which are informed by 20-plus years as a journalist/editor, teacher, communications director and outreach coordinator. While writing realized within broader creative communications strategies and organizational collaborations is my gift, my passion is to use that gift for the implementation of practical social justice programs that enable participants to thrive honestly.


I welcome comments about projects highlighted in this column. Furthermore, I value constructive criticism, detailing the obstacles that stand in the way. It is only through the thoughtful identification of obstacles that project points can be accommodated, tweaked or re-evaluated for a successful outcome.
