The pandemic puts everything and everyone on a precipice. Today, more than ever before, we need to overcome isolation and fear with connection and collective action. “Social Distancing” does not have to mean isolation, fear and powerlessness.

Collectively, we have what we need to get through this and not just survive – but to thrive.  Let’s work out how to stay connected and the new systems we need for resiliency.  Please join us for any of these 4 conversations.  Get more info and RSVP for the ones in which you’re interested by clicking the links.
