Ways to Get Involved in CARE
CARE is leading many initiatives where we want to hear your perspective on agricultural community resilience and weather-related hazards.
- If you are a farmer, agricultural community member, or Extension agent, we will be hosting community listening sessions and Extension interviews where you can share your experiences to highlight the major needs and opportunities for resilience in rural agricultural communities
- If you are a professional or community member also working on the topic of agricultural community resilience, we welcome the opportunity to learn about your efforts and how our work can align with or support them
- If you are interested in learning about practical ways to build resilience in your operation or community, let us know and we will inform you of educational programs developed through the project
