Changing the Systems 101 - Lafayette, Sep 8

8/28/2019

 
Truly ending hunger means changing its systems—Bread for the World, Indy Hunger Network, and Women4Change Indiana are joining forces to present this class on changing the systems that impact hunger.  The end of hunger is within our grasp! Everyone has a part to play, and hunger cannot be ended without our government playing its part. Hunger advocates can make a major difference by helping our elected officials understand how policies and priorities can help end hunger. In this course we’ll explore the key skills and best practices needed in making systems change.
