CCC
I have been working with the Coalition for Community Connection, an intergenerational cooperative of community leaders – educators, artists, entrepreneurs, public servants, faith leaders, and youth – creating holistic, human-centric solutions to issues of violence, food insecurity, and displacement in New Orleans’ underserved neighborhoods for the last year. We believe in the power of ‘right relationships’ between community members, to the environment, and within oneself to repair what decades of trauma and disenfranchisement have broken.
N.O.U.R.I.S.H. combines elements of restorative justice, the healing power of nature, cooperative economics, and an emphasis on trauma-informed approaches within mental health to reweave the social safety net that stands between neighbors in need and preventable catalysts for crime.
I have been designing assets – digital and print materials and website – for our campaign throughout the length of our work together.
