- COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT ALMANAC

In a time of distance, we built a toolkit to bring communities closer.

Alongside everyone else during the COVID-19 pandemic, TYTHE had to pivot. We sought ways to be useful to the community when we all felt so helpless. Enter the Community Engagement Almanac. This comprehensive public-facing toolkit shares many of TYTHE’s best practices for community engagement with specific accommodations as organizations emerged from the pandemic–including physically distanced events and hybrid or virtual gatherings. To ensure its continued relevance, we’ve updated the document since its 2021 release and included video guides to help maximize its usefulness across sectors. 

We’re proud to share many of our principles as facilitators and community leaders through this tool, showing that intentional community engagement doesn’t belong to any one firm. It’s necessary for all of us to build a stronger future. To that end, we created this toolkit as a resource for the community, sharing insights from a decade of TYTHE’s on-the-ground experience. We will continue to update the almanac as we collect new practices from our teaching and engagement with communities from New York City and beyond.
