Welcome Community Partners who are supporting and building resiliency in Harnett County!

Resilience Initiative Harnett County is a grassroots activity that was started after a viewing of the Resilience film and follow-up Community Cafes.

It is times such as these that call on people and communities to be resilient and find strength to meet problems head on. As a community we can help lead the way.
