  Social Capital Inc. (SCI) was founded in 2002 in Woburn, MA. After initial success in Woburn, SCI developed plans to expand to other local communities. In 2004, SCI partnered with DotWell, a Health Services Partnership of Codman Square Health Center and Dorchester House Multi-Service Center, to develop Dorchester as the second flagship site. SCI Dorchester spent months going through a needs assessment and planning process to determine how it could best serve the community. SCI Dorchester held three brainstorming sessions in 2004 in Codman Square and Field's Corner to allow community members to discuss community issues and their ideas on how SCI Dorchester could address them. SCI Dorchester programming began in October 2004 with the Dorchester Youth Council and the development of a Community Resource Guide. Since MyDorchester.org first launched in 2007, it has been replicated in Lynn and Fall River.
  
  
  
  At the time SCI came to Boston, I was working for the Dorchester House Multi-Service Center and attended some of the planning and brainstorming sessions. I was a guest speaker at the community unveiling of the MyDorchester.org website, which believe it or not, took place at UMass Boston. The My Dorchester website is a great place to connect the community together while increasing civic engagement.
