Description: Join a conversation with Angela Glover Blackwell, founder and CEO of PolicyLink. Our discussion will focus on promising practices and policies that create healthier communities and stronger, more sustainable regions. As the face of America – and of Minnesota –  changes, our fate hinges on how we react to these changes and invest in our region.

The recent report by PolicyLink, America’s Tomorrow, makes the case that racial and economic inclusion is critical to succeeding in the global economy. By working together with our grantees, we can successfully advance equitable and inclusive policies.

All grantmakers interested in increasing access to jobs, transportation, education, health and housing for all should attend.

Sponsors: Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota Foundation, The McKnight Foundation, Northwest Area Foundation

Speaker: Angela Glover Blackwell, founder and CEO of PolicyLink
