Since that time so much has happened\, Freddie Gray\, the escalation of the opioid epidemic\, a new administration in Baltimore and the nation\, and so much more.\nDuring that same time\, many people have learned how trauma impacts our body and our brain making us more vulnerable to many mental and physical ailments. We’ve also learned that we are strengthened by positive connections with others.\nThis invites you to the TCC’s “Stronger Connected – 2nd Annual Community Networking Event”. This FREE networking event is focused on strengthening connections between people who believe all communities in Baltimore have the right to thrive.\nTo realize thriving communities\, we have to work together with all stakeholders involved and really get to know each other. For those making the efforts\, we know it requires dedication\, flexibility\, real connections and love for the people we work with. Come out to our informal get-together and reflect on the collective journey we are all on.\nWe have a fun evening planned with hors d’oeuvres and beverages\, so don’t worry if you don’t have a chance to grab dinner. Bring a friend! Enjoy a great summer evening gathering!
