What do you imagine when you picture safe, sustainable, healthy communities?
For many of us, #safetyis a kitchen stocked full of food, warm and cozy homes, clean drinking water, access to quality medical and mental health care, among other resources that create safe, loving communities.
However, the resources needed to achieve healthy communities are often prioritized for rich, white neighborhoods — while poor Black and Brown neighborhoods are perpetually under-resourced. What needs to happen in order to design and build a system that functions equitably… one that upholds the dignity and health of everyone?
Join us and Faith in Place Action Fund on Monday, August 24th at 7pm CST as we envision what healthy communities can look like beyond policing. We will have a lively, virtual conversation, faclitated by Rev. Otis Moss III, with SOUL’s very own faith leaders, Terence Mayo and Elle Dowd, Doctoral Student of Public Policy, Tiffany N. Ford, and Research Associate at Human Impact Partners, Chrstine Mitchell.
