Why join the Bench of Supporters?: A core intention of ROI’s work is to connect the wisdom expertise that exists across this diverse network, to the local leaders in our community who are working to build a more trauma-informed, connected, resilience-focused rural Eastern NC. This message is reaching over 600 people from over 30 different states. Please consider sharing your time/strengths with our community through offering a 45-minute mentoring session.
