White River Valley Resilience Hub
Resilience comes from the social cohesion that forms when people organize in response to real needs. Hubs in the White River watershed may well look like town-by-town physical community centers where, though collaboration, we can provide “a space where people can take more pride in their neighborhood, learn new skills together, provide for basic needs, prepare for disruptions, and build a more inclusive and joyful community.” Likely, they will look different in each town and take into account the existing resources and infrastructure that is already there.
