Action Track: Building Resilience
Connect Local, Support Local
We encourage teammates to connect to other local green organizations (including each other) and practice supporting local businesses at least once a week. Re-share a post, order curbside, make a donation to your favorite non-profit, or find a local business to make a purchase from! Let’s keep making St. Louis a greener, healthier, and more sustainable place to live, work, and learn! Have other or more specific actions to add to the Connect Local, Support Local Building Resilience Challenge please email Fbrandt@mobot.org.

REFLECTION QUESTIONPeople Connect While Social DistancingHow does connecting with others help your own mental and emotional health? How can it help support others?
Linda Daniel 4/02/2020 6:01 PMToday I called an elderly friend, whose husband is in a senior living community. She usually spends half of her waking hours with her husband, but because of the Covid-19 she cannot visit him. Her and her husband are very close and she misses him, but is keeping busy doing things at home. Glad I called her, she is a dear friend.
