Vision - Alex Askew

“It’s up to individuals, families and communities to figure out how to help themselves. But we wanted to help show them ways towards that empowerment. I think that this book could be a change-maker in terms of empowering communities around health equity.”

Events

The Mindful Eating conference in Atlanta, GA, marks the launch of the nationwide initiative and includes workshops on mindfulness and food justice, an interactive Mindful Meal, presentations from social-justice leaders working in health equity and a reading from the book.
