Unit 2: Building a Better Community

Building a Better Community

Some people live in suburbs and small towns. They are organizing into groups which join, participate and empathize with people who need help because they lack the necessary resources to succeed.

Many communities are designed with recreation places and do some culture activities to unite people. Moreover they are working in the participation of the people to clean up rivers, planting trees and recycle programs to health the environment.

These groups are created based on some rules such as respect, consideration and solidarity with each other to live in place of peace. But not everything is good, because often occur violent situations by family problems, lack of communication and money problems, which lead people to do crazy things they can not handle.

Therefore it is appropriate that they seek help and for that support groups are found in communities who listen, inform and provide alternatives to reduce the problems.
