The meeting will start with brief presentations from community members involved in building community resilience and mutual aid networks, followed small group discussion. There will be time for networking and new member orientation at the end.
The reading is from the book, What If Boomers Can't Retire? How to Build Real Security, Not Phantom Wealth, by Thornton Parker (2000). It's out of date in many ways but, along with our presenters, will provide useful context for the discussion. [Download excerpts from the book]
