The Center for Empowerment and Education - Dr. Charlie Yarish Talking Seaweed - Waterbury Bridge to Success

Oct 09, 2022, 12:15 PM

We're continuing our month-long Domestic Violence Awareness Month series with The Center for Empowerment and Education - the regional Domestic and Sexual Violence resource for Upper Fairfield and Lower Litchfield county. We'll focus on this year’s theme #Every1KnowsSome1, and hear about The Center's upcoming events and workshops to help spread awareness. 

Then, our midpoint is just going to be a couple of guys sitting around talking seaweed - with the grandfather of the U.S. commercial seaweed industry. Dr. Charlie Yarish back to open your eyes, and maybe make you hungry to learn more about how seaweed can help solve an amazing number of environmental, economic, health and food shortage challenges.

And we're closing highlighting Waterbury Bridge to Success (BTS) bringing over 90 community and civic leaders, educators and organizations together empowering Waterbury’s youth to be successful in school, career, and life. We'll preview their upcoming workshop tour of partners putting the spotlight on access to resources, advocacy and leadership for this generation and the ones to come.
