“We need to take what we learned last year – a year of struggle – to come back stronger and move forward.’ She hopes to bring people together in 2021 in some way and sees opportunities ahead for young members to band together and help each other out. ‘If we have learned anything,’ she said, ‘it’s that we need people. We can’t go it alone. We need to be together and work together.’”
