NY Statewide Preservation Conference We are so excited to be welcoming Equitable Development Strategist and Detroit native, Lauren A. Hood, to the virtual Keynote stage on December 2nd! Lauren A. Hood is an AfroUrbanist working at the intersection of Black aspiration and city change. Applying a reparations lens to the work, Lauren employs the strategies of storytelling, visioning and relationship building to addressing a community’s past harms, present needs and future hopes & dreams. Credentialed and experienced as both a community developer and equity facilitator, she holds space for otherwise difficult conversations that allow practitioners and citizen stakeholders to understand and value each others contributions while working toward transformational outcomes. |

Students will learn about the skills and trades that contribute to the field, and participate in a hands-on window restoration workshop with national window expert, Steve Jordan. The series will be offered as three courses during the month of January; you can choose to take 1 or 2 courses or sign up for all three!
