Executive Director, Weave: The Social Fabric Project at the Aspen Institute. My opinions and views are my own.

[Richard V. Reeves @RichardvReeves]

I am so proud of the @aibm_org board: Ted Gayer of @NiskanenCenter (Chair) plus @ChristineEmba, @aliceshob, @frederickjriley and @DBrianCollier! Check out their bios here:

We need to get the facts straight on the issues of boys and men.

The conversations surrounding boys and men have been steered by poor evidence and opinions. AIBM aims to provide research that can create a better foundation for constructive conversation and policy around the issues of boys and men.

Weaving is building relationships. Weaving is connecting. Weaving is a way of living. It means standing against a culture of personal striving and competition, and including people of all types in building relationships across difference and community success.

How can we use acts of service and storytelling to build bridges in communities? @Jreckford (@Habitat_org) leads a discussion about strengthening civil society with @iamsmccormick (@ymca), @frederickjriley (@weavetheppl) & @JenanMohajir (@interfaithusa) at #SSIRFrontiers

[PSI @AspenPSI]

Listening to our @AspenInstitute @weavetheppl colleague @frederickjriley at #SSIRFrontiers. On getting on the right path to bridging divides & avoiding false consensus: "I'm often sitting next to me at the table. I need to sit across from someone who is not me." 💯

[Stanford Social Innovation Review @SSIReview]

[The Pew Trusts @pewtrusts]

70% of Americans believe our trust in each other is shrinking, but 86% say it's possible to improve confidence in one another, @pewresearch shows.

How? By investing in local communities.

We explore in our new season of "After the Fact." https://t.co/dHdreh3xC2

[fjr @frederickjriley]

In America's neighborhoods, local organizations are bringing people together to provide solutions—and hope. I discuss the power of community on @pewtrusts' "After the Fact" podcast. Listen now: https://t.co/u1AlhDMlJZ #WeavingCommunity

[Erica @erica_sesay]

Trust starts at home and is the key to bringing us together.

Loved hearing from @frederickjriley at @weavetheppl during the @nebcommfound annual celebration!

[Megan Corey @megankcorey]

It’s fantastic to be back in person for meaningful conversations. Talking about prosperity and how we define and measure it. Thanks to @UnitedWay for hosting us. @AdvanceTheDream @Farah_Pandith @frederickjriley @RAH_United @SHRM_CKO

As more and more people loose trust in our systems we cannot loose a faith in our neighbors!

[Weave: the Social Fabric Project @weavetheppl]

6 out of 10 young Americans believe most people can't be trusted. How can we rebuild broken social trust?

@nytdavidbrooks and @frederickjriley spoke to @ChandlerFdn about how #weavers build trust locally and tell new stories about ways to come together. https://t.co/1JD7jXADWo

[Weave: the Social Fabric Project @weavetheppl]

Director @frederickjriley raised a round of applause for @MandT_Bank “Not often do banks become this deeply entrenched in community based work.” Today as we celebrate #WeaverAwards we also recognize the community and corporate partnerships that make this work possible!

[fjr @frederickjriley]

In America, interpersonal trust is in decline. Less than 1/3 of Americans agree that most people can be trusted. Today local hero’s Dani Battle & Mack McCarter joined @nytdavidbrooks and I to explore why rebuilding trust must start where we live. @aspenideas @weavetheppl

[The Aspen Institute @AspenInstitute]

Today’s five best ideas: https://t.co/aXk6ZAf6cH from @frederickjriley of @weavetheppl, @IvonaHideg in @ConversationUS, @jwgale in @business, @rifish in @BBC_Future, @ToddFeathers in @VICE

Today I honor hero’s who’ve helped me navigate this blindfolded journey through life. I honor them and will forever be in their debt. Black history makers live among us, let’s take time to honor them.

[Weave: the Social Fabric Project @weavetheppl]

Weave’s @frederickjriley remembers the Black heroes in his life this #BlackHistoryMonth. They fought the same injustices and prejudices of our society—not on a grand scale, but on a human scale, changing his life and #WeavingCommunity. https://t.co/Ki6cJxn0DF
