Sustainability Learning Collaborative Planning Work Group
The group meets on the fourth Friday of every month at 12:00 PM Eastern for one hour to share progress made in sustainability planning using the Finance Project Toolkit or other useful planning tools.
Discussions focus on challenges encountered by group members and strategies used to overcome barriers, successful collaboration building techniques, financing strategies, data collection and more. Participants actively seek guidance and suggestions from each other about the sustainability planning process, and share their own progress in real time. The group is facilitated by ARCH consultant, Susan Janko Summers, PhD. For more information, please feel free to contact her at sjsummers@archrespite.org.
