Participants will have the opportunity to share resilience priorities, lived experiences, and the barriers and opportunities they see for strengthening resilience across the region.

This focus group is limited to 20 participants and registration is first come, first serve. Participants will receive $50 incentive upon completion of focus group. An emergency go-bag will be raffled off at the conclusion of the session.
