To answer the question or to even to explore the question what constitutes a healthy community, one must first distinguish that as individuals we not always a part of just one community; we are part of several. As a young Caucasian male my school, home, workplace they are all separate communities to which I belong. All these different communities have differences in beliefs that affect my individual thoughts and philosophies. As I would imagine a first nation individual might have a similar network of communities that effects their answer to this particular question. Or is a community just a group of people living in a particular area as some definitions express? is there a common thread of beliefs or is it just location that makes a community, because I am sure I have many differences with lots of people in my urban community.
