Community
We are only ever as strong as the most vulnerable in our community.
As one global community sharing one rock hurtling through space, this is an invitation to learn more about localized communities who are hurting and in the journey of rebuilding, and about leaders who are a voice of the regenerative future. If you feel ready to give in some way, or simple want to learn more, scroll down to begin your own journey. I also welcome any feedback to how this page can be more useful, and resources that you feel should be added.
