About CJ	English (USA)
Welcome to one of the Connect Network's community list servs, an email communication list to be used as a community-building tool for nonprofit organizations, civic leaders, volunteers, anyone working to maintain a healthy and secure quality of life for all citizens in metro Richmond. This list is for individuals and agencies involved with Colaborando Juntos, also known as CJ, an innovative network of government, nonprofit, faith, private and community volunteers who work with and for the Latino/Hispanic community and its wellbeing. CJ increases public awareness of critical issues by encouraging partnerships and leveraging resources. CJ serves the Central Virginia region. Colaborando Juntos means working together. CJ has as one of its short-term goals to “build effective communication among participants.” As a strategy in achieving this goal, this email list provides a forum for discussion of issues affecting the community, facilitates discussion in order to help the community and serves as a tool for sharing information about programs, funding, collaboration, research, conferences, jobs, and any information members think others might like to know about. The Connect Network, and its marquee communications and capacity-building enterprise, Connect Richmond (www.connectrichmond.org) manages these lists for the good of the community.
