PFQAC Virtual Presentations
PFQAC is pleased to announce that due to the ongoing COVID pandemic, we are now offering three different virtual Zoom presentations to QAC residents, home associations, civic associations, and faith organizations on the issue of single-use plastic, as well as recycling. A fourth, three part workshop will be launching in the spring of 2021.
These presentations are roughly a half hour to one hour in length, and include time for Q and A. Please note that each presentation can be adapted to the needs of your group and time frame.
In addition, each presentation can build easily into a 3 or 4 part series for more in depth learning.
