It’s one thing to be out there on your own working your little heart out because you love this City and you want it to be a better place for everyone who lives here; but it’s entirely another to find that you are indeed not alone, and that the strength of the relationships gained through Coro could open up yet more relationships, deeper insight, and more capacity to make change happen. I still rely on my Coro network and consider them my closest friends and professional colleagues.
