ECO-UM

Dear NPU-S, 

ECO-UM is an Environmental Consulting Organization at the University of Michigan, made up of students passionate about making communities more sustainable. This semester, our team is partnering with Community Church Atlanta as their Vicars Community Center has become a Resilience Hub—a safe gathering place where residents can access essential resources like cooling, power, and information during severe weather events or power outages.

We're reaching out to understand how this Resilience Hub can best serve the needs of the community by gathering feedback from residents like you. Our goal is to ensure that that hub is not only prepared to meet your needs in emergencies, but also provide useful programming outside of emergencies. 

Please complete this brief survey. Your insights will directly help shape the services and resources available in the Vicars Community Center. Responses to this form are anonymous, so please feel free to share your honest thoughts. 

Thank you for helping us build a more resilient Atlanta. You can watch this video or  find our more information at ccogatl.org/hub 

Sincerely,

University of Michigan Students & Community Church Atlanta 






Sincerely,

Rev. Kevin W. Earley, D.Min.
Senior Pastor
Community Church - Atlanta, GA
