After our project was publicized through a CNN Heroes broadcast in June 2010, we at Morningside Village wanted to respond to the inquiries from all across the country about how people could build such a village in their own communities. We wrote and published (in November-December 2010) Guidelines to help you. Here is a report from a reader in Southern California:
Irene, Here’s an update!! Now that the holidays are over I’m ready to move forward. At this point getting the word out to our residents takes priority. The people are here so I’m busy posting information about S.O.S. The response is positive! We have bulletin boards in the lobby of each building. I can post information there. Volunteers are beginning to surface. This work is amazing!! I’ll keep you informed. Thanks for your support, G.
(How great is that?!)
