Join the OCDCA book club! We will read books related to community development topics of housing, food access, financial empowerment, economic development, and community engagement; place-based, urban/rural, and neighborhood issues; empathy; and leadership and other professional development skills useful to community developers.

This is a low commitment club meaning that you can come and go from the club per your interest in a particular book. You do not need to be an OCDCA member to participate in the book club.

Our third book as chosen by members who attended our previous book club meeting is The Life and Death of Great American Cities by Jane Jacobs.
