Description

We invite you to join Impact Alamance and the Alamance Wellness Collaborative members for a keynote address on Building our Cities and Towns for Everyone to Thrive. All of the residents in our county do not have equal access to comfortable walking routes, public transportation, or community spaces that feel safe or welcoming. The good news is that there are solutions to make our spaces and places more equitable. This summit will help us better understand the racial and health disparities that created these problems and how to fix them to build a brighter future for all residents of Alamance County. Breakfast will be served to all summit attendees. Charles T. Brown is the founder and principal of Equitable Cities, a minority- and veteran-owned urban planning, public policy and research firm focused at the intersection of transportation, health and equity. He is also an adjunct professor at the Edward J. Bloustein School of Planning and Public Policy at Rutgers University. Charles is an award-winning expert in planning and policy and has been interviewed by several notable outlets including the New York Times, Washington Post, etc. He is a highly regarded keynote speaker and leads workshops on transportation, health and equity for audiences worldwide.
