Dear Friends,
We want to assure you that we take the health and well-being of our community, and associates very seriously. Like you, we are learning to navigate this quarantine safely and productively. We have worked hard through this time to continue to deliver high-quality education about the issues impacting our health. Please read here about our upcoming events and join us as we continue to grow and make progress on the ongoing issues of health and our environment!
Every Tuesday at 8 p.m. be sure to watch Better Path Coalition's new webinar series,
Better Path Presents
! The Better Path Coalition turned two on April 13th under circumstances we would never have imagined at our kickoff rally in 2018. We decided to organize weekly webinars to help us stay connected, stay informed, figure out together how to be activists, advocates, and organizers who must work at a safe distance from each other and our targets, and make plans for how we can help shape the new normal. Each webinar will include information about current actions and events and how you can participate.
Better Path Presents
is livestreamed on
Facebook
and registration for the Zoom call can be found at the
Better Path Presents website
each week.
