Our Executive Director, John Harrison, joined the “Resilience in Action” panel alongside Dr. Kristen Gilliland and Josiah Holland, offering practical ways families, schools, and teams can build emotional resilience together.

A huge thank-you to and all who came out to learn, share, and be part of the movement.
