How about these ideas?

Laura, more specifically I feel that collaborative frameworks that cross-connect traditionally siloed sectors of the community to better bind them and integrate diversity are important.  This paper I wrote details such a model, perhaps you can let me know if it has the potential to achieve your vision of integrated and intergenerational community?

  Its written with a focus on corporate citizenship but the same design can facilitate collaborations between parties, sectors, and organizations.  So if people can embrace the values I talk about and follow the design I describe (see diagrams) they might find it easier to get there.  A culture like the one you wish for could result.

Thanks!
