How is the Thanksgiving meal like a Just & Resilient Recovery? The last eight months have reminded us how interrelated all aspects of urban life are – public health and economic security, open space and democracy.

Click through the images below for a recap of some of our Just and Resilient Recovery thinking to date. Happy Thanksgiving!
