Connect the Dots is an annual education and advocacy series launched in 2009 by the Southwest Virginia Chapter of the U.S. Green Building Council. Each year events, social media and ongoing web-based content are created around a particular sustainable building topic. Local events celebrate the connections we build, social media keeps us engaged, and our website serves as an ongoing resource for our membership and fellow citizens.
