Difficult Topics Framing Guide

$0.00

Everyone seems on edge about how to protect their spaces, and new projects can bring friction. The Difficult Topics Framing Template is an essential tool for confronting the most sensitive issues—displacement, cost burden, and enforcement—with integrity.

It is critical because it directly applies the Standard of LOVE (STOLO) by affirming that challenges are systemic and never the result of individual failure ("Name the System"). This framework immediately protects the dignity and self-esteem of participants, establishing a non-judgmental, trusted space.

By inviting voice and centering the resident as the expert in their experience, this process ensures you gather the authentic, lived-experience data needed to identify systemic root conditions and build truly equitable, anti-poverty policy solutions.

Never let fear of difficult conversations limit your ability to understand one’s truth. Use the Difficult Topics Framing Template to collect the bold, necessary community intelligence with integrity and respect. Access the FordMomentum! template today, and call us when you need additional support.
