Beltrami <br />Resiliency Team: <br />100 Cups is an engagement process in Beltrami County, Minnesota, taking place from <br />March -December 2020, led by a group of community members called the Beltrami Area <br />Resiliency Team, and coordinated by the Beltrami Area Service Collaborative. <br />The process is described as follows: <br />100 Cups is a community -driven framework that listens to the voices of those who are <br />not typically at the decision -making table. The format of 100 Cups is simple —volunteer <br />interviewers have cups of coffee one-on-one with 100 community members. Questions <br />center around community values, priorities, strengths, challenges, and hopes for the <br />futu re." <br />Some of the questions included: <br />• What values do you think are most important to your community? <br />• What's something you know that you wish other people in your community knew and <br />paid attention to? <br />• What are the most significant challenges that your community faces? <br />• What's one thing that could be done right now that would make a difference for your <br />community? <br />• "I wish there was a place in our community where..." <br />• Do you feel like you have a voice when decisions are made in the community? <br />The results have been shared on the resiliency team's website and through events. As of <br />June 2021, this process is focused on community conversations to identify next steps: <br />working toward "self -healing communities, building more empathy within our community, <br />and creating more spaces where all voices are heard." <br />Learn more on the Beltrami Area Resiliancy Team website. <br />31 <br />
