Assisted by Hector Brambila, a graduate architect-engineer also from Bridgeton, Cerda-Moreno created a PowerPoint presentation in both English and Spanish on the intent of the Guidelines.
​
A raw form of this presentation is now available, and has assured that our workshops are accessible and provide clear visual interpretation of the Guidelines text.
More than workshops!
Our HomeFronts workshops are just the beginning. We believe in continuous learning and strive to improve our offerings based on your feedback. We actively seek your input to understand your needs and develop workshops that address them.
