Community Development Institute 2002

This web site is to complement the two Vancouver Community Network (VCN) workshops to be presented at the Community Development Institute (CDI) in Prince George during July of 2002. The site will remain as a permanent resource.

The workshops are the result of a partnership between Vancouver Community Network, the Community Development Institute and the Prince George FreeNet.
