South Carolina 7

The 2nd annual SC Resilience Conference will take place April 7-9, 2025, in downtown Greenville, S.C. This one-of-a-kind conference unites the dynamic sectors of health and wellness, conservation, and resilience.

The SC Resilience Conference is one of the many initiatives of South Carolina 7, a partnership project between two South Carolina non-profit organizations- the South Carolina National Heritage Corridor and Global Eco Adventures.

“The incredible success of our inaugural year has shown us just how powerful collaboration can be when building a more resilient South Carolina,” said Michelle McCollum, Co-Chair of the conference. “We are thrilled to announce that the SC Office of Resilience is joining us as the Community and Economic Resilience Track Sponsor. Their leadership and support will play a key role in strengthening our mission to ensure healthy people, healthy places, and a healthy economy is a reality in South Carolina now and for future generations.”

The 2025 conference line-up features Lt. Governor, Pamela Evette, Ben Duncan, South Carolina Chief Resilience Officer, Dr. Tom Mullikin, Director of the South Carolina Department of Natural Resources, Sarah Lyles, Executive Director of PalmettoPride, and many more.

The SC Resilience Conference is honored to name the South Carolina Office of Resilience as its Community and Economic Resilience Sponsor and BlueCross BlueShield and the Medical University of South Carolina as its Health and Wellness Sponsors.

“Resilience is an ever-changing and growing field, requiring communication and coordination with public and private entities to increase the ability of South continue to thrive when presented with environmental changes and natural hazards,” said South Carolina Chief Resilience Officer, Ben Duncan. “SCOR is proud to partner with SC7 to highlight South Carolina’s existing resilience efforts, share best practices, and advance the work of building resilient communities, economies, and ecosystems.”
