Hi, Yeni-
Welcome back to Chicago from such interesting conferences! I would love to learn from you and also invite you to help us create/reinvigorate a Rogers Park Food Policy Council or perhaps Food subset of Transition Rogers Park/49th Ward Green…

Welcome to Transition Rogers Park!
Are you interested in getting engaged in the work here? I'm especially interested in your ability to work with youth. This is an intergenerational initiative - and our youth are an integral part of our community. Would be great if you could find the time.
Hope to meet you soon,
Pam

Transition Rogers Park is a grassroots, from the ground up, community organization. No one is going to tell you what to do and how to do it.
If you have a thought or idea that could move the community forward toward resiliency and self-reliance, put it out there....and then begin it!
