Coalitions strengthen the model
Issue tables test and share what already works — prayer, care, worldview, economy, public life.
Local deployment
The church is the touch point. The initiative is the team.
National, regional, and local leaders form trust-based coalitions. Together they engage families and churches to deploy biblically grounded solutions. We call these local teams Community Initiatives.
What an initiative is
A Community Initiative is one approved community-strengthening model — an expression within Let’s Rebuild, not the governing center of the network. It is a local table of pastors and practitioners who already carry care for a place. It is not a new nonprofit stacked on top of the church, and it is not a TDI chapter.
- — Anchored in the local church, not a campaign brand.
- — Fed by coalitions and shared resources.
- — Locally requested, locally invested, network-supported.
- — No implied agency: an initiative does not speak for TDI unless authorized in writing.
From network to neighborhood
Churches remain the anchor
Pastors are networked and equipped, not managed. The church is hands, feet, and safety net.
The initiative coordinates
Local teams deploy proven practices so the next family, widow, or orphan is not starting from scratch.
