Re-Birth of the Community Culture

The culture of The Community On Demand™ Creative Economy is governed by the STEM Direct Youth Chamber of Commerce (SDYCC).

The STEM Direct Youth Chamber of Commerce was created to reflect the time, energy, skills and talents we have and use to celebrate how we impact and sustain the places where we live, work, learn, play and travel. As we recover from the global pandemic and maneuver through today's socio-economic challenges, the next generation is tasked with re-defining what the word community means.

So how does building a Community On Demand™ Creative Economy help? By helping them define answers to the following two questions.

What Is A Creative Economy?

How Do You Sustain It?

Local Contributor Networks

DO BETTER. THINK BIGGER!

Local Contributor Networks (LCNs) are comprised of the SDYCC members -- students, volunteers, mentors, non-profit organizations and for profit businesses -- that play Community On Demand™ to create impact solutions that benefit their communities.

Their key goals are to support the evolving culture of the Community On Demand™ creative economy by generating substantial new economic benefits, greater connections among its residents, and a distinctive community identity.
