Historic Quincy Community Heart & Soul (HQCHS)

 Historic Quincy Community Heart & Soul is a resident-driven process that engages the entire population of a town in identifying what they love most about their community, what future they want for it, and how to achieve it. 

Building Bridges

HOW IT WORKS:  Community Heart & Soul is an ongoing practice that provides municipal officials with a clear understanding of what matters most to their constituents–all the residents–and forges a partnership that builds on the first thing everyone has in common: they all live here. It’s not a report that sits on a shelf; it’s a way of coming together to make your town a better place to live in and visit.

Community Heart & Soul begins with a four-phase, step-by-step process that brings residents together to identify and honor the unique character of their town and the emotional connection of the people who live there.

Four (4) Phases

 Heart & Soul teams are formed to build awareness, interest, and commitment in all segments of the community. 

Stories are gathered from residents, leading to the development of Heart  & Soul Statements that identify what matters most and reflect what they love about their towns. 

Residents develop action plans to guide future town planning based on their Heart & Soul Statements. 

Heart & Soul Statements are officially adopted by town and city councils, incorporated into comprehensive and other plans, and are used to guide future policies and decisions.
