Sep. 16: "Growing Resilience" Community Resilience Toolkit Launch Party!

In response to worsening energy, climate, and economic crises, Bay Localize is equipping organizers in our region with the tools they'll need to build strong communities. Join us for "Growing Resilience," a launch event for our long-awaited Community Resilience Toolkit!


WHEN: Wednesday, September 16, 6-8:30 pm

WHERE: Women's Building, 3543 18th St., SF
(Only blocks from the 16th St. BART station)


The Toolkit is a workshop facilitation guide for leading groups to think holistically about how to build ecological, economic, and social resilience in their communities while decreasing reliance on fossil fuels. It offers Bay Area-specific fact sheets, resources, and actions in six key sectors: food, water, energy, transportation, jobs, and civic services.


Come hear dynamic speakers, see live performances, dance to our DJ's eclectic selections, take part in interactive Toolkit sessions, and enjoy tantalizing local food and drink! Please RSVP today so we'll be sure to have enough goodies on hand.



Growing Resilience is cosponsored by our friends at Movement Generation and Transition US. Thanks to Atlas Cafe, Bi-Rite, City Slicker Farms, Kaia Foods, Produce to the People, Rainbow Grocery, Straus Family Creamery, Valencia Whole Foods, and the Women's Building for their generous contributions.



Toward a socially just, vibrant, and resilient Bay Area,


—Aaron, Claudia, Dave, Graham, Jeff, Kirsten, Leah, Linda, and Nile
