When we first heard of this up and coming communities project, we knew that @familyprotection was on the right path and it gave us an extra incentive to make something of our little community.
We are proof that this proposed model for communities works in reality. Not only are we rewarding our members who write good content, but we are helping to raise awareness on a very sensitive issue and by doing so we are creating solidarity and unity which is the foundation of any healthy community.
You're right; you have. In part because of energetic supporters like @richq11 .
Do you have any advice for someone who wants to form a proto-community around a different subject or issue?
