Those seeking a comprehensive approach to sustainable community planning and development from the neighborhood to the regional level will benefit from:


  • An expanded Community Capital framework that organizes community resources into eight interrelated forms of capital

  • The Community Capital Compass process for navigating complex situations involving everything from municipal services and land-use planning to housing and climate change

  • Elaboration of collaborative governance, community mobilization, public engagement, capacity building, infrastructure, policymaking, and promising practices

  • A companion website featuring case studies, profiles, online resources, interactive tools, videos, and more.


Packed with concrete, proven strategies, this ‘living book’ is the go-to guide for sustainable community development. Toward Sustainable Communities is essential reading for current and aspiring professionals, practitioners, policymakers, educators, purpose-driven organizations, engaged citizens, and anyone concerned about their communities and a sustainable future.
