100% Otero to Host 3rd Annual County Summit

100% Otero, a local grassroots nonprofit dedicated to eliminating childhood trauma in Otero County, invites county residents to attend a community summit on Friday, February 21, 2025, 9:00 am to 4:00 pm at the CHRISTUS Health Conference Center, Building K, 2669 N Scenic Drive, Alamogordo, New Mexico.

This summit is for those interested in learning more about the 100% Otero initiative, elected officials and community members. The emphasis will be on how we can all work together to prevent childhood trauma. Individuals will gather to network, teambuild, learn and brainstorm. The event is free for participants and lunch will be provided by 100% Otero and the Anna Age Eight Institute.

Register at https://www.100nm.org/otero/summit/ by Monday, February 17, 2025 to your space.

Deb Wisniewski, emeritus faculty of the ABCD (Asset-Based Community Development) Institute, will be the keynote speaker and facilitator. She will help attendees strengthen collaboration across service sectors, improve the alignment of our work, and reinforce connections among county residents. We will reflect on the power of moving from a mentality of scarcity to the recognition that our community has the building blocks necessary to make every childhood trauma-free, with families empowered to succeed in well-resourced schools and communities.
