The Problem
Orange County, like many other parts of the world, has been experiencing various challenges in rebuilding its community post-pandemic. Community leaders are still figuring out how to effectively provide services to their residents. They are also concerned for their own mental health and well-being after being on the frontlines for over a year.
Our Work
During April – June 2021, the Orange County Community Foundation sponsored our Ambassadors of Peace certification training program for OC community leaders. Participants were trained in managing their mental health and designing solutions to improve the wellbeing of their communities and organizations.
