Topic: Cal Poly Study Update: What Makes Retreat Centers Sustainable?

In partnership with a team of Cal Poly University students, the Retreat Center Collaboration is studying models for financial and programmatic sustainability at retreat centers. We’re halfway through an 8-month research and analysis project, and we hope you’ll join us for this Community Call with Alyza Jose, Jenna Vokolek, and Yumi Aguilar.

This team of industrial and manufacturing engineering students bring a systems-based approach to this study, which is complemented by virtual interviews with retreat centers across the continent, in-depth data collection, and onsite visits to centers in California!

Come learn more about their work thus far, and offer your input as the study progresses.
