PACEs Connection is excited to introduce our new Creating Resilient Communities (CRC) Accelerator Program. (Click here to review a brief description of each event. See below for April event times).

The 16 hour CRC accelerator is focused on supporting and developing individual activists and advocates in transforming their communities and organizations using PACEs and resilience frameworks.

The CRC accelerator will cover fundamental topics such as understanding of PACEs science, community organizing, multi-sector collaboration, and strategic planning; as well as several special topics. See below for quick highlights.

Accelerator Program Highlights:

• The accelerator program consists of 16 hours of a mixture of both relevant interactive learning sessions and informative video modules.
• These events are FREE and OPEN to the public!
• If you miss the April events, all events will repeat in May and then again in June. Stay tuned for updated blog posts with the May and June dates.
• IMPORTANT!!! Every participant must FIRST attend the Introduction to PACEs Connection event, and then you may attend the remaining events at your own pace.
