The Community Tool Box (CTB) is a free, capacity-building resource for communities. Tool Box materials focus on building the capacity of local, national, and global efforts to bring about change. It includes step-by-step guides for key skill areas, real-life examples, and supports for problem solving. The CTB is the largest and most comprehensive resource of its kind in the world. In addition to its availability in English, there are a number of CTB tools that are available in Spanish. The vast resources are organized by what users may want to do: (a) learn a skill; (b) plan the work; (c) solve a problem; (d) explore best processes and practices; (e) connect with others. (Working with partners in the World Health Organization, the University of Kansas Work Group for Community Health and Development has led the development of its Community Tool Box since 1994. This Work Group is a project of the Schiefelbusch Institute for Life Span Studies at KU).
