About Us
Commcure focuses on addressing community needs and communications needs, ranging from individual, therapeutic needs to community-wide needs. Established in 1999 by Stephen Snow, Commcure focuses on community interests and desires, building your ability to develop and sustain your community in ways that serve you.Snow has a PhD from the University of north Carolina at Charlotte, and has been involved in communications for more than 30 years, primarily in newspapers and magazines. As an award winning writer and editor, he has helped champion many significant local issues on the local, regional and national levels.
The last decade of those years he has spent focusing on electronic media and how it can best serve community interests. As founder of the internationally acclaimed Charlotte's Web, one of the world's first "nonprofit dot-coms," he guided first-hand over seven years a complex, regional telecommunity built by and for a region. He has delivered numerous addresses and helped countless communities through the years as they worked through the questions of how to apply technology for their community interests.
Commcure can help people organize to apply for grants, organize existing projects for better effectiveness, work with troubled projects to "get them out of the ditch," and help people with a variety of technology-related planning services, assessments, training, RFP writing and development. If it relates to comunity applications of techology, information and communication, Commcure can help you do it or figure it out for you.
Among his primary interests academically are integrating human needs and technical infrastructure and Jungian applications of SandPlay in virtual environments. He also has a deep commitment to addressing complex trauma in children and adults, with a special emphasis on men who commit domestic, family or interpersonal violence, an area for which he is a regular speaker in national and international conferences.
If you are interested in talking about any of these things, please send an e-mail note and he'll reply quickly.
