MCNY/EDM Purpose 3 CA class presented to faith leaders in Brooklyn

By Michelle Johnson – The group met at Wyckoff Hospital and discussed family, community, and organizational preparedness.  The presentation was followed by an active discussion, where the community demonstrated their need for this information and desire to learn more.  The class provided practical information and resources in the languages spoken in these communities.  This presentation was the first step in a three-semester long project, with the goal of building community resilience.
