Building community is primarily around people. If a community is going to go and grow then it has to have the right people in the right places doing the right things. This is a hard thing to balance and even harder to find.

That being said, I think the LW could take some ideas about creating a vibrant, accepting, and advancing community by coming together, having open discussion, and most importantly creating chances for people to advance and to grow themselves. I think the regular discussion of goals and aims is a good idea and I think we need to encourage that.
