Connect for Good Purpose Forum

🌟 Connect for Good Purpose Forum: Bright Futures Start Here: Conversations That Shape Tomorrow

🗓️ June 26, 2025 | 11:30 AM–1:00 PM
📍 Mesa County Workforce Center | 512 29½ Road, Grand Junction

What does community look like to you?

And what do you want to help create here?

At this month’s Purpose Forum, we’re turning up the power of dialogue, curiosity, and community wisdom.

Instead of presentations, we’re making space for real conversation—rooted in connection, shared purpose, and the voices in the room, such as yours.

You’ll move through a series of small-group prompts to reflect, connect, and explore what matters most with others who care about strengthening the Grand Valley.

Everyday leadership, small actions, and cross-sector collaboration all play a part in building a stronger, more connected community.

This forum also introduces the idea of everyday wisdom exchange—a culture where information, insights, and even small stories are shared as acts of civic generosity. Whether it's a local tip, a tool you rely on, or something you’ve recently learned, your experience might just be the spark someone else needs.

It’s all grounded in the spirit of netweaving—showing up with curiosity, generosity, and a willingness to build relationships that benefit everyone.

And it reflects the core values of Connect for Good: connection, compassion, cooperation, generosity, and reciprocity.

You’ll leave with new insights, meaningful connections, and one small step you’re ready to take—while enriching your own sense of purpose and belonging along the way.

Whether you're new to the area or deeply rooted here, this is a no-pressure, high-possibility space to share stories and spark ideas that move us forward.
