Your Community Network for the Love of Research
Welcome to The Community Stories and Conversation Project (TCSCP)! We aim to provide a community resource through qualitative research and facilitation; a training, mentorship and support hub for community organizations and individuals; and a networking platform and collaboration hub for small research businesses and independent researchers.
Our work is guided by the following basic guiding tenets and principles:
● Community is important and worth building and empowering.
● Research is a powerful tool for understanding people, and research skills are necessary and valuable.
● Every voice should be heard, not just the loudest.
● Creating safe spaces to listen and to be heard is vital, and effective feedback loops are worthwhile.
● “Nothing about us without us.” We believe in empowering community members in every phase of the research project, not simply as research subjects.
