Collaboration Opportunities Between the AMS and Spiritual/Faith-Based Organizations to Build a Weather-Ready Nation Webinar

Spiritual and faith-based houses of worship are often places of safety, volunteerism, and crisis management during and after high-impact weather events (e.g., hurricanes, tornadoes, wildfires, flash flooding). Hence, spiritual and faith-based communities can be an integral part of building a Weather-Ready Nation. This AMS webinar is part of the Finding Common Ground Among Science, Spirituality, and Environmentalism Series.
