Twenty-five years after the Sept. 11 attacks, we remember those who lost their lives and the lasting impact of that day on our nation.
In the months that followed, UMB established what is now the Center for Cyber, Health, and Hazard Strategies (CHHS), recognizing that preparedness, public health, emergency management, and resilience would require new forms of collaboration.
Today, CHHS continues that mission by helping communities prepare for, respond to, and recover from crises. ow.ly/tokN50ZLfLl

In partnership with Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Upton, the @mdsocialwork Center for Restorative Change co-hosted dozens of families on Sunday, Aug. 23, distributing school uniforms, backpacks, colored pencils, free food, and more. ow.ly/qXbJ50ZEWo5
