You care deeply about issues in society - homelessness, inequality, climate change - but you need additional tools to better understand how to tackle them. You're ready and willing to learn because you know that merely talking about how awful things are isn't a very effective way to solve them. But you don't want to get caught up in the toxic and hyper-polarized bickering between both sides of the political spectrum. In Community Heroes, you'll learn why it's important to: - Use the First Principles framework to prevent discussions about social change from becoming emotionally and politically charged; - Understand why working on Wall Street might be a more effective way of achieving social impact than working for a nonprofit; - Suspend your dreams of changing the world and instead strive to be a hero in your own community; - And much more! Whether you're a regular citizen looking to do good in your community or an AmeriCorps VISTA member about to start your year of service, Community Heroes will help you make your community a better place.
