Episode Synopsis

How can we practice collaborative relationships differently? For Inés Palmarin, long-time Boston community builder, coalition leader and Vital Village National Advisory Board member, this starts with building trust and creating intentional spaces to connect around our shared “why” and hopes for our communities. Ines reflects on her own personal journey, the creation of the Boston Mothers Care coalition, and the evolution of collaborative practices that seek to center racial equity. We explore with Inés what it looks like to sustain “heart work” within coalitions to create wellbeing and opportunity for children and families to thrive.Featured guest:Inés Palmarin, Co Founder of Boston Mothers Care & Community Weaver /Vital Village Board MemberHost: Ronda Alexander, Director of Operations, NOW at Vital Village NetworksRegister for the 10th National Community Leadership Summit: https://www.vitalvillagesummit.org/register Learn more about Boston Mothers Care: https://www.bostonmotherscare.org/ Additional Resources:Explore the featured resource from the NOW Resource Library, Building Diverse Community Based Coalitions, here: https://www.networksofopportunity.org/resources/Building-Diverse-Community-Based-Coalitions Produced by: Networks of Opportunity for Child WellbeingMusic: Want U W/ Me (Instrumental Mix), by Akira Sora, From the Free Music Archive, CC BY 4.0Edited By: Resonate Recordings
