The Community Café Collaborative – changing the lives of children through conversations that matter

OUR MISSION Strengthening families and communities by sparking the leadership and relationships needed to create more inclusive and equitable systems.
WHAT WE DO Our diverse and committed team of volunteers provide training and coaching at Café locations throughout the United States. Find out more about our work.
FEEDBACK “Time and time again I have witnessed the power of a community café disarm and remove racial barriers, generational gaps, and professional bias.”
TOOLS AND RESOURCES The Community Café site represents the collective wisdom of many family stories. Here are some of the resources we’ve used to inform our thinking, affirm the work, communicate with others about what the work is, or get inspiration.

Social change is possible one conversation at a time

Community Cafés spotlight neighborhood wisdom and transform it into community action. They are planned, led and monitored by family members who can relate to the participants and want to build on the assets of their community to strengthen families.

The Community Café Approach

Community Cafés in Action

Time and time again I have witnessed the power of a community café disarm and remove racial barriers, generational gaps, and professional bias. I’ve watched their consistent approach level the playing field for every individual in the room; no matter the accolades, culture or community environment. I believe that Community Cafés can be instrumental in helping our society have the tough conversations, especially for my community.
