In this podcast, we have Hon. Corey Woods, Kyle Rhan, John Drew, and Cherylyn LeBon as panelists. The discussion centers around economic renewal, not just recovery, after the pandemic. The goal is to create a new normal that is more equitable and just for everyone. This will require cross-sector solutions since we are all interconnected as people and economies. The panelists will explore how to achieve this goal and make the most out of the opportunities that come with this challenge.

Quotes

We have a lot of very dedicated nonprofits in this community who've been doing great work not for years, but frankly, for decades. And we have to partner with them because there's a ton of need out there. - Hon. Corey

Let's appreciate the geographic differences that we have in our country and adjust our priorities accordingly. - Cherylyn

Partnerships should be maintained, and the community should recognize the significant contributions of nonprofits. Instead of duplicating their efforts, we should support them. - Kyle

Increased dialogue is necessary, involving individuals from diverse backgrounds and industries in these discussions is crucial. This pandemic presents a chance for the nation to emerge stronger and tackle pressing national concerns. - John
