Crystal - First, thank you for such a great question! I hope other business owners will take cues from you.
It would likely serve you well to take our Creating Resilient Communities (CRC) trainings. Also, you'd probably gain a lot from the 'Creating Partnerships on the Path to A Just Society" workshop I lead as part of our workshops available to people who've moved through the CRC trainings.
Also, check your state's communities here to see if there's a community with which you can connect. If not, you can learn how to start one and connect to others from around the country who're wanting to create initiatives in their geographic area in the CRC trainings.
Best of luck to you!
