Imagine Lethbridge has commenced the development of our Community Portrait
To lead this effort, an Imagine Lethbridge Task Group has been formed. This group will connect with residents, businesses, agencies, public sectors, environmentalists, and other stakeholders to design and oversee the development of the portrait. Through shared ideas, experiences, and dreams—combined with facts, data, and personal stories—we will create a comprehensive picture of what makes Lethbridge special and how we can grow sustainably.
A well-crafted community portrait serves as a powerful tool for neighborhoods, cities, and regions worldwide. It identifies key issues, fosters collaboration among diverse groups, and provides a roadmap for long-term planning. For Lethbridge, this evolving portrait will reflect the contributions of everyone involved and guide decisions that ensure our community remains a vibrant place for all to live and age well.
The Task Group currently includes members from the Steering Committee and broader community. However, as more people contribute their voices and ideas, the portrait will continue to grow and change—just as our city does.
