To engage the network in learning, normalize conversations about race and racism, and support sharing and action, Food Solutions New England is hosting its fourth 21-Day Racial Equity Habit Building Challenge April 2-22, 2018.Participants sign up to receive daily prompts by email to guide their journey.The Challenge also features a set of resources to explore, an online dialogue, and a series of related blog posts.

Everyone who is working for a just and equitable food system is invited to commit to the Challenge – to reflect on your own or to share with a group. Join hundreds of people for an exciting 21 days of learning, sharing, and connecting. Sign up: www.foodsolutionsne.org/get-involved/21-day-racial-equity-habit-building-challenge and join the conversation #FSNEEquityChallenge.

One participant in the 2017 Racial Equity Challenge said, "It's been very impactful! I was introduced to resources and conversations I most likely never would have found on my own. I appreciated having the impetus to take time every day to consider racial equity and how it plays out (or doesn't) in my life and my work."
