Opportunity Starts At Home

Leaders from the health, faith, and food security sectors join us for a discussion on advancing racial equity through their participation on the Opportunity Starts at Home campaign. In the past two years, the campaign has formed a Racial Equity Working Group to advance racial equity within the campaign. In this episode, members of the Racial Equity Working Group explore how their organizations are advancing racial equity, the intersectional impact of correcting racial inequities in housing policy, the work of the racial equity working group and major reflections and takeaways. The discussion features Curtis Johnson, Vice President of Housing Strategy, Catholic Charities, Alexandra Ashbrook, Director of Root Causes and Specific Populations, Food Research and Action Center, and Charlotte Bruce, Research and Policy Analyst, Children’s HealthWatch.
