Ideas for change become action with Grailville’s Community Resilience in Action, on Saturday, February 2nd from 9:30 am to 12:30 pm at Grailville Retreat and Program Center in Loveland, OH.

Inspired by the Awakening the Dreamer, Changing the Dream Symposium and the Transition Movement, people are coming together at Grailville taking local action to increase community resilience in response to global challenges. Working groups are now meeting around local food, renewable energy/ green building, and interpersonal relationships/communication, which formed at the November 3 follow-up to the Awakening the Dreamer symposium. Join us at the next full group gathering on February 2 or contact Bonnie Hendricks to connect with a working group: bonnie@grail-us.org. Take this chance to be on the ground!

This series will be led by Bonnie Hendricks, Grailville’s Sustainability Coordinator, who is passionate about decreasing Grailville's ecological footprint while increasing Grailville's contribution to the sustainability of the region. A member of the Grail, Bonnie moved from California to Grailville in 2003 to work for the national Grail movement before settling into her current role in 2011. She ferments whatever will hold still. She has a Master’s of Divinity and a background in community organizing.
