Update: The Resilient Communities Project (RCP) Website is Live

Resilient Community features:

– A Resilient Community Land Trust that establishes a permanent commons as a basis for living sustainably on the land within a regenerative economic system (i.e. – circular).

Later on, RCP members can elect or even possibly serve on the board.
