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

Four questions to ask yourself before working or playing outdoors: Do you have enough water? Do you have access to temporary shade? Do you know the symptoms of heat-related illness? Do you know who to call in an emergency? http://www.osha.gov/heat #HealthierNJ #HeatSafety
