We have all been touched by the many challenges that arose throughout the past year, some more grievously than others due to the loss of a friend or family member.
The extremes of weather and climate-related disasters, as well as the many trials arising from the global pandemic, have tested us deeply, but we have survived and have become stronger in our resiliency.
I firmly believe that the key to our ability to withstand these extreme challenges has been the fact that we came together and did not give up. Unity of purpose and determination in the face of adversity is the key to resilience.
As we move forward to the New Year rest assured that the Building Resilience Coalition and all its members and associates will continue our mission to build a stronger, safer, and more resilient future.
I am so grateful for all the efforts of so many that have brought us to this point, and we will continue our quest together.
Have a wonderful holiday season and my very best wishes to each and every one of you and to your families.
