ATPT COMMUNITY FIELD ACTION MODEL · VERSION 1.5

Pull Up.
Listen.
Feed. Build.

The field is the classroom. This is the community-engagement curriculum At The People's Table uses to turn direct service, listening, reflection, and follow-through into repeatable learning and action.

The model

Presence before theory.

Participants learn by entering real communities, serving people directly, listening, observing, reflecting, and building from what the community teaches them.

Core cycle

Pull Up → Listen → Feed → Build → Repeat.

One curriculum can be used with youth, adults, volunteers, organizations, faith communities, schools, service teams, and other groups doing real community work.

Our standard

We do not enter communities looking for content. We enter communities looking to contribute.

We listen because people's answers matter. We serve beside people, not above them. And when the handout ends, we bring what we learned back to the Table and build from it.

A.W.A.R.E. Field Method

A practical field tool participants can actually carry with them.

AArrive Aware

Where am I? Who is here? What is happening?

WWatch & Listen

Notice people, needs, strengths, surroundings, and what is being said.

AApproach With Dignity

Talk with people, not at people. Respect boundaries.

RRespond & Serve

Help where you can. Adapt. Do not assume what someone needs.

EEvaluate & Build

What did I see? What did I hear? What should we do next?

A.W.A.R.E. Field Method — Created by Richard Chiu, Director of Community Growth & Partnerships, At The People's Table. Integrated into the Pull Up. Listen. Feed. Build. curriculum by Markus Moss.
