[OPTIONAL SATURDAY BREAKFAST CONVERSATION] Protecting the Neighborhood: A Shared Wisdom Breakfast Hosted by Riverside Innovation Hub from Minneapolis and Parish Collective, this shared breakfast creates space for a confidential conversation on neighborhood safety in a time of increased ICE activity and uncertainty for many of our neighbors. Through stories from the front lines in Minneapolis and Chicago, we’ll explore how communities are moving beyond service toward mutual aid and collective care.
