Review for Transition US, Sebastopol, CA, USA
As an organizer working with congregations to engage in building healthy communities, sustainability and care of creation need to be balanced with human well-being. Transition offers a process of engagement, training, support, and shared values (inclusivity, heart & soul, permaculture principles) to not only develop resilience, but to create communities which thrive. Transition US has been very supportive of this work, recognizing that multiple demographic groups may have different motivation but want to engage in the process of creating holistic communities. I introduced Transition to multiple groups in Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin.

Funding could increase capacity to provide training and resources, to share best practices and network local intiatives, to develop communications within the US and with the international Transition Network, to assist local funding for Transition projects
