5/17/16 RecQuest Racial Equity Subcommittee Kickoff Summary

RecQuest

Racial Equity Subcommittee Kickoff Meeting
This meeting was held on May 17, 2016.

The RecQuest Racial Equity Subcommittee kicked off on May 17 at MPRB Headquarters from 6-7:30pm with representation from the RecQuest Community Advisory Committee (CAC) and the public. Guest speakers from the Calhoun-Harriet Master Plan Equity Subcommittee spoke to share their experiences and successes. The RecQuest CAC voted unanimously at their last meeting to form a Racial Equity Subcommittee for this important project. This subcommittee will focus explicitly on race but not necessarily exclusively, as all inequities need to remain in the forefront throughout this project.
