Imagine Fox Cities is an inclusive community-wide initiative created to be intentional about shaping the future of the Fox Cities when it comes to well-being.
In October 2019, more than 300 people from across the Fox Cities participated in a Community Summit to hear about a new visioning effort called Imagine Fox Cities. Information about what was learned from a well-being survey and community conversations prior to the summit was shared, and revealed in the community’s living vision for the future.
Throughout the Summit day, one theme was central: the importance of belonging. As a result, the Imagine Fox Cities coordinating committee chose Belonging in the Fox Cities as an initial focus of its work to inspire community action.
