Published on 6 Comments on Lessons on Resilience from a Knapp Fellowship Project

by Erin Powell, for the Fall 2020 Symposium on Community Engaged Scholarship.    

I couldn't pick one theme for this presentation because two of them were so interconnected in my life and my work. This presentation is meant to help us question what we are prioritizing in our professional work, where resilience really comes from, and whether those things have changed because of the unique time we are living in. Symposium Theme: Resilience.
