The Community Action Network, in partnership with Leadership Austin and supported by the Greater Austin Chamber of Commerce and Granite House designed a vehicle to begin offering a "community dialogue" experience/presentation for organizations, businesses and faith communities. The "community dialogue" presentation focuses on the "3E's" of community sustainability: Economy , Social Equity and Environment . While the dialogue highlights Austin's success as a national leader in environmental preservation and the development of an extremely robust economy, the focal point of the dialogue is the third E : Social Equity. Between May and December of 1999, the group of CAN staff and volunteers and the Leadership Austin Social Equity Action Team of the class of 1998-1999 met twice per month to write, produce and review the video and power point presentation.
