Rebuilding does not happen all at once. It happens conversation by conversation, decision by decision, project by project.💪

📅 May 19 | 5:30 – 8:00 PM
📍 Blythe Construction Training Center | Charlotte, NC

This panel brings together leaders directly involved in long-term recovery to offer a grounded, real-time perspective on progress, challenges, and opportunities to contribute:
