In the Building Resilience Summit series, criminal justice system-impacted individuals and their collaborators come together to share insights and wisdom on resilience and success. There will be powerful presentations from three Returned Citizen speakers, followed by a Q&A session. Attendees will be able to engage with speakers, ask questions and gain valuable insights into resilience and empowerment. A networking session will be held at the end of each event. Refreshments will be provided by local organizations.

This event will be recurring in-person on the second Saturday of most months, as follows: May 11th, June 8th, July 13th, August 10th, November 9th, and December 14th.
