Consciously Rebuilding: Graduation

Wow, so it's been a while and I want to continue to post on the blog but I have a second job now, so I have to put CR on the backburner for a bit.

On May 9, 2009 Yasmin Bowers and Consciously Rebuilding graduated from the Allan Houston Business Development Program. It was a 6 month journey and the winners of the incubator are in one of the pics--Ashley Thomas, Creative Vibe and Chris Williams, Arcade Gaming World.

Consciously Rebuilding won the GoodWork Network Community Impact Award. YAY!!!!! And when I went up to receive it everyone was smiling and happy, my mom was screaming and my classmates were chanting "Go Green".

The Conscious Mission

Consciously Rebuilding provides a community development service to addresses the health, social, and environmental dynamics of post-Katrina New Orleans through education and experiential learning. We promote conscious incremental lifestyle changes that mature into holistic individual, community, and environmental health. We educate marginalized populations that have been traditionally untapped by the “Green” Movement by translating the principles of “green” into priorities of financial capacity and health.

Who We Are

After earning their Masters in Public Health from Tulane SPH, Yasmin Bowers and Andrea Floyd teamed up to rebuild New Orleans. Consciously Rebuilding was created to provide services that address environmental, social, economical and infrastructural elements of building and rebuilding in a post-disaster region.

In the wake of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, our experiences in a post-disaster region exposed the parallelism of environmental, social, and economic issues shared by other regions.

The communities we hope to serve starts with you. We will help communities that do not have a voice but a vision. This burgeoning vision will flourish through collaborative efforts and our passion for change.
