Ways to Build and Maintain a Culture of Belonging

1. An inclusive culture: "Everyone belongs to our Association."

2. EXPECT that everyone will belong.

3. Reinforce a collective sense of identity. What battles have we fought and won together?

4. Each individual has a positive relationship with others in the group? We work together and play together.

5. We support one another during times of stress. What happens to one happens to all. This begins the strength of unity.
