Ever True Roadmap to Recovery

Roadmap Timeline

Brown’s Ever True Roadmap to Recovery timeline outlines ongoing programming and activities spanning weeks, months, and years on the path to healing for the Brown community. In keeping with public health best practices after a traumatic event, the recovery effort is for the whole community, and acknowledges that every individual recovers differently.

We also acknowledge that the Brown community is not alone in confronting trauma and violence. We appreciate understanding the experiences and perspectives of community members from other universities who have suffered in similar ways, and who have so generously shared their own views and lessons learned as we plan for the long-term repair of our community.
