On May 27th and 28th, CECE hosted AmeriCorps and its partners from across the US for a two-day Learning Opportunity focused on what it means to lead effectively when communities face their greatest challenges. During the event, a team of graduate student filmmakers from the Center for Environmental Filmmaking sat down with program leaders, state commission directors, and AmeriCorps alumni and leaders who shared firsthand accounts of their experiences in crisis response. This film tells their story.
