About the Chelsea Collaborative

A Vision for Chelsea

The Chelsea Collaborative defines a Vision of Chelsea as a community which is:
  • Knowledgeable about its own needs
  • Willing to mobilize its resources to respond to community members in need
  • Working to strengthen its capacity to respond to needs
  • Able to mobilize its resources by organizing and advocating for services
  • Able to successfully attract external resources, and
  • Able to successfully integrate external resources into its local problem solving efforts

Under this vision, there is a shared sense of commitment, responsibility and recognition of mutual benefit among both the community at-large and the service-providing institutions and organizations.
