FURTHERMORE, THE LARGE INFUSION OF RESOURCES INTO AN UNDER-RESOURCED COMMUNITY SERVE AS A CATALYST FOR CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AND ADVOCACY BY COMMUNITY MEMBERS. MASS DEPLOYMENT PARTICIPANTS (AKA "CREW MEMBERS") RETURN HOME PREPARED AND ENERGIZED TO LEAD MOVEMENTS OF CHANGE IN THEIR OWN LOCAL COMMUNITIES.
