Events
We are currently devoting much of our attention to the development and expansion of the Maine Resilience Program. Specifically, we will be developing a chapter on resilience for the University of Massachusetts-Boston's Center for Rebuilding Sustainable Communities after Disaster. We will also be looking for opportunities to develop the program in other communities in Massachusetts and the Northeast.
Since we will be offering fewer trainings this fall and early winter, we are offering a 40% discount on the materials, a discount that we have offered in the past only to workshop participations. Here is more information about the 40% discount.
Upcoming Presentations
- We will be updating this soon.
Dr. Ron Breazeale, author of Reaching Home and Duct Tape Isn't Enough is available for training and consulation events. For more information about these upcoming event, including registration information, please contact us today.
