“When you see people’s lives change in a big way and you realize they’ve changed themselves; it’s powerful.” ~ Majora Carter

At EPCON 2010, Keynote speaker Majora Carter brought her pioneering green collar job training and placement models from the South Bronx to the Twin Cities. Carter championed a model of engaged social innovation that requires building reciprocal relationships through sustainable economies to address issues instead of merely giving financial assistance.
