A quality home is the foundation of society & community
Rockford Housing Authority will be sharing the stories and lives of community members that exemplify the I Am Rockford movement over the next few weeks. These will share the first five stories of community members and thought leaders. These compelling stories will look at their life, how these members interact with the community and the impact that they made.
The prominent thing about I Am Rockford is it is not just exemplified through the people highlighted, yet it is about the community as a whole. Because, I Am Rockford is alignment for community unity and solidarity. We are advancing the future together. Most communities have a silent majority that allows small vocal groups to do all the talking. This is your chance to become a large vocal majority.
Because this is a story about your community; no one is excluded. After all communities are dynamic and diverse in every aspect in class, religion, age, gender, language and ethnicity. It is from this that the concept of I am Rockford is a community living, breathing organism signified by the words ‘human being’. As human beings we are social animals that need connection, recognition and acceptance from others.
Understanding some of the complexities, complications, and confusions within the life of just one member of a community, is to gain insights into the collective community we call ‘Rockford’.
I Am Rockford is a community. It is a group of individuals that acknowledge and respect their differences, yet understand that working together is better for a common good. Finally, I Am Rockford is an assembly of people that take pride in their city and have a desire to advance the future, together.
“RHA continues to rebrand itself as a vital piece of our community. I am excited by the I Am Rockford movement as it can mean so much to so many; not a divider but a unifier. The list of possibilities is as long as our unique qualities or commonalities. In essence our ability to unify is endless. Consider… I am a father. I am a husband. I am unique. I am loved. I am one rung of a ladder. I am change. #IAMRockford.. Join I Am Rockford today!”
