IACD’s Membership Blog


Our Membership Blog is the place to go when you want to see what our members are doing, studying, teaching, learning, and experiencing. We encourage all of our members to share with us anything they are doing in the field of community development.

You can get creative — tell us about a volunteering experience you had, or a class you took. You could write a case study, a poem, show us a photo essay, or even share news with us about a conference you’ve attended.
