What our community says about CSN Membership:

CSN is our organization’s most leveraged membership because of all the targeted resources they provide for shared spaces. We have really benefitted from participating in learning communities, workshops, webinars, one on one consulting and peer to peer information sharing. Whenever we have shared space questions, CSN is the first place we turn to for expert advice

What our community says about CSN Events:

Sharing experiences with other people who operate and support community spaces.  I learn so much from talking with others who do what we do at Serve Denton.  We all have successes and failures, and sharing those experiences helps everyone get a little better.
