We've shifted our work a bit to serve more of our community more efficiently. Prepared care packages are underway. Check out the lineup. #SouthSideFoodDistributionNetwork
Last week, the #Bronzeville Food Distribution Pop-Up increased food access for folks in the 3rd and 4th wards, and even extended to folks in neighboring wards who heard about us. Get involved: bit.ly/volunteers-sig… #Chicago #SouthSide #SouthSideFoodDistributionNetwork
Today we processed donations & distributed to 482 neighbors/households, and 100 packages in collaboration with @Acclivus via outreach. We’ll be open tomorrow from 11am-1pm. Please share! Donate, volunteer, spread the word! bit.ly/redistribution…

Communications majors! @RabyFoundation is seeking an intern from Aug. 16-22 to help collect stories in the Black community. Intern will facilitate discussions w/ students & elders. Preferred: juniors/seniors in college + experience w/ youth. Resumes: katanya@RabyFoundation.org.
BUT guess what, THAT is the work, and the intention of @borderless_MXUS > Breaking the systems & redesigning the rules of the game to create #design #processes as inclusive as possible. Stop asking me to choose a team. It’s not either/or. It’s yes/and. 2/2
My #design practice does NOT belong only to #arts or #architecture or #urban #planning. It belongs to all of them. I know it’s hard for our professional structures & to understand, think & act beyond those 1/2
After carefully considering advice from public health experts and feedback from our families, we are announcing a full remote start to the 2020-21 school year. More info: cps.edu/reopening2020
We're bringing free high-speed internet service to 100,000 CPS students to ensure all of our learners can stay connected—no matter their income. cps.edu/chicagoconnect…
Aw shucks, thanks @RobertFeder. ☺️ I am grateful to have this platform at @wttw and thankful for the support to launch #BlackVoicesWTTW. Mostly, I’m EXTREMELY EXCITED to start finding and telling stories that matter to our community! #letsgetit

Mask up, Chicago. And wear it right.
Under @realDonaldTrump’s failed leadership, over 150,000 Americans have now died from Covid-19. Rather than working to keep Americans safe, he’s focused on thwarting democracy with a power grab by proposing to move Election Day. Let’s be clear: He has no authority to do this.
I'm excited to join @ChiPublicHealth Commissioner Dr. Allison Arwady tom. to help answer Chicagoans' questions about how @ChiPubSchools is supporting families during the #COVID19 public health emergency this summer, our preliminary plan for a safe return to schools this fall.
Tomorrow, 7/21 at 11 am: CEO @janicejackson will join @ChiPublicHealth Commissioner Dr. Arwady live for a new segment of "The Doc is in: Ask Dr. Arwady"! Submit your questions to Dr. Arwady and Dr. Jackson using #AskDrArwady on Facebook and Twitter.
