How to use this site year-round

While the scheduled twenty-one days of this year’s FSNE Racial Equity Challenge wrap up in April, we invite you to make use of these materials throughout the year. FSNE and the volunteer planning team invest a significant amount of time and energy updating and improving the FSNE REC every year and it’s our hope that its usefulness can be spread far and wide.

Think about whether you are doing this exercise on your own or if you want to organize a group of participants at your school, business, organization, etc. Make sure everyone planning to participate allocates at least 15-20 minutes “per day” to spend with the FSNE REC material (more if you want to dive into the optional extra material offered each day). If you’re working in a group, have an initial conversation about what people would like to get out of the FSNE REC and if/how you’ll meet to discuss what you’re learning and apply it to your activities.

Decide whether you’ll be doing this over twenty-one consecutive days, spread out over twenty-one weeks, or on some other schedule. It’s up to you!

After that, it’s pretty straightforward: Start with the Pre-work assignment and then work your way through each day’s material in order.

Don’t forget to visit the Food Solutions New England Resources Page for this FSNE REC to find additional materials to suit your needs.
