So far, you have learned about three Dimensions of Belonging. Each individual Dimension of Belonging is important and valuable. Yet, by themselves these dimensions do not create belonging. When the dimensions are in place together, they are stronger and lead to belonging. This week, you will learn from a young woman, Xuan, who shares her story that captures the dimensions of “Present,” “Invited,” and “Welcomed.”
