Creating Neighborhood Resilience - N’Hood Watch, Emergency Preparedness, Permaculture

Filed under: miscellany, events, news, politics, water — jan @ 7:00 pm

Monday, October 19, 7 PM

1055 River Road - River Road Park District Annex, two blocks north of Goodwill, across River Road from Taco Time

The program is organized by the River Road Community Organization

A panel will include a representative from Neighborhood Watch, Emergency Preparedness and Permaculture

Each panelist will explain how the respective programs can enhance community resilience, then they will discuss how cross fertilizing the programs - combining important aspects of each - can multiply the value and effectiveness of all three for creating greater neighborhood resilience.

Grass to garden in the front yard, first responding, neighbor looking after neighbor, community collaborations, work parties and skill sharing and much more will be discussed.
