Ways in which community "visioning" can be used to generate support and action for community education are described in this paper. Six steps in the community visioning process are discussed: (1) preparing; (2) conducting a workshop; (3) obtaining community feedback; (4) action planning; (5) recruiting, implementing, and following up; and (6) evaluating and celebrating. The community visioning model presents an alternative to the traditional needs-based or deficit-planning process in the following ways: it is proactive, future-oriented; and it views the community educator as a facilitator. Two figures are included. (Contains 21 references.) (LMI)
