Politics silenced Cuban voices beyond its shores, but within, music is its very heartbeat. For the first time ever, through over 40 concerts and unprecedented access to Cuba’s streets and people, musician and documentary filmmaker Ron Chapman brings to life the most dynamic experience of the full spectrum of Cuban music in all of its extraordinary diversity. NVFF is proud to host Ron and several of the Cuban musicians who will appear and perform live after the screenings.

The mission of Citizen Corps is to harness the power of every individual through education, training, and volunteer service to make communities safer, stronger, and better prepared to respond to the threats of terrorism, crime, public health issues, and disasters of all kinds.

The Citizen Corps effort is coordinated at the local level by Citizen Corps Councils or similar coordinating bodies, which bring together community leaders to plan for emergencies before they happen. The local leaders who serve on the Citizen Corps Councils should reflect all sectors of the whole community to ensure every stakeholder has a seat at the table. Citizen Corps Council members participate in developing community emergency plans, conduct localized outreach and education to the public, offer training and participation in exercises, encourage volunteerism, and in the event of a disaster, form an integral part of the response.

Get CERT trained in basic disaster response skills, such as fire safety, light search and rescue, team organization and disaster medical operations.
