Housing, Work & Food Justice
There are nearly 20,000 people experiencing homelessness every single night in Minnesota. Low-wage workers are fighting for fair, safe, and equitable conditions, yet 1 in 8 Minnesotans are affected by hunger. Housing, Work & Food Justice is about engaging in opportunities related to these these inequities, and forging a more just future through a holistic approach to economic development.
