About this facility

Mission
After earning their Masters in Public Health from Tulane SPH, Yasmin Bowers and Andrea Floyd teamed up to rebuild New Orleans. Consciously Rebuilding was created to provide services that address environmental, social, economical and infrastructural elements of building and rebuilding in a post-disaster region. In the wake of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, our experiences in a post-disaster region exposed the parallelism of environmental, social, and economic issues shared by other regions. The communities we hope to serve starts with you. We will help communities that do not have a voice but a vision. This burgeoning vision will flourish through collaborative efforts and our passion for change.

From Volunteer Match:

Consciously Rebuilding and HM Social Services, Inc. are in the early stages of renovating 8 units to offer as affordable "green" supportive housing for those returning to the Greater New Orleans Area. We would like to recruit volunteers that can offer services to assist in creating formal environmental specifications for our contractors (engineering plans) so that we know the performance of the technologies that will save energy, water, etc. Engineers do not necessarily have to be on-site if out-of-state professionals are interested.

We are also in need of construction services--roofing, electrical, plumbing, painting, etc.

We appreciate any help that is offered, and services are tax-deductible.

Skills needed: Licensed Contractor, Electrician, Plumber, Certified Engineer

-----------------------------------------------------

Goals:

An influx of disaster evacuees with the economic and social resources to repopulate the Gulf -Coast region.

The rebuilding process will incorporate the values of sustainable development.

The quality of life will increase during the rebuilding process.

Social responsibility and accountability for companies that affect community health will become more efficient and effective.
