New Jersey VOAD
Building Resilient Communities
When I think about
Empowering Resilience…
I think of empowering people.
…to work with communities
…give them the tools for them to be empowered
…to be able to be resilient, themselves, in their local community.
~ Araif Yusuff, Former NJVOAD Vice Chairperson
