    Equity Snapshots: The Model Minority Myth- Is Episode Ep. 15

    The month of May is Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, in honor of this we centered a conversation around an important topic, The Model Minority Myth. I am joined by Dylan Van Duyne (he/him), an Equity Training Specialist within the SDP Office of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. We continue our Equity Snapshot series in which our Equity Training Specialists discuss different concepts and topics in equity work. We are working through Oppressive Thematic Ideologies, which the ETSs will be conducting trainings on throughout the year. Oppressive Thematic Ideologies highlight different forms of oppression and inequities that people of various identities experience. The aim is to educate and increase awareness of the challenges and the assets that different communities have in order for everyone to grow more aware of our society and explore a better way forward towards equity.  This podcast is about cultivating prosperity and liberation for students and staff. We do this by showcasing and debriefing the great equity work that is being done throughout The School District of Philadelphia community. With each episode, we hope to cover topics that will create pathways for marginalized populations in our District, by removing barriers, increasing access and inclusion, building trust, and creating a shared culture of social responsibility and organizational accountability.

    Equity Is Understanding: The Breakfast with the Brothers Program in Learning Network 6- Episode 13

    On this episode of Equity Is we talk to some folks running a different kind of violence prevention program in Learning Network 6. Breakfast with the Brothers is a gun/crime diversion, prevention and intervention program. BWTB is geared towards youth, who are at risk of being or currently a perpetrator of violent crime. Breakfast With The Brothers does not consist of skilled workshops like your average diversion program. They are confident it will have the same effects through a more conscious & consistent group guided discussion amongst male professional leaders, over a hot breakfast. The program is run by Trust Factor.  Trust Factor is all about bringing Trust back to the community. Founded in 2021 by Zachary Frazier and Jessica Hill, Trust Factor encourages community involvement, intensive self-reflection, positive critical thinking, trust building, and self accountability. BWTB is one of many programs Trust Factor runs to ensure they are providing more resources to their communities and youth.  You will hear from: Zachary Frazier- CEO of Trust Factor Eugene Lett- Climate and Culture Coach for LN 6 Links to Resources and Information from our Guests: Breakfast with the Brothers PDF Information: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nMf_4Fds5Gz6HluyaIW-KH-92CoE4CxR/view?usp=sharing Eugene's Recent work with students:  https://whyy.org/articles/76ers-snipes-christy-rec-center-kids-shopping-spree-montrezl-harrell/ This podcast is about cultivating prosperity and liberation for students and staff, families, and the SDP community at large.

    Equity Is Access: Food Equity in Practice at the School District and in Philadelphia- Episode 11

    On this episode of Equity is, we discuss programs that target food equity. Access to food and nutrition is essential for students and families and has ties to student success in school. However, food inequity and insecurity is something that many students face. Food insecurity is usually defined as a lack of consistent access to enough food for every person in a household to live an active, healthy life. This also means providing foods that fit the cultural practices of those in need. There are various programs that target food insecurity and work to help district families and students get access to the food they need. You will hear from: Laura Crandall: Director of Food Security Initiatives, City of Philadelphia’s Office of Children & Families Teisha Cavanaugh:  Program Coordinator for Nutrition Education , Eat Right Philly & SNAP-Ed Erin McCrossan: Senior Research Associate, District Office of Research and Evaluation Amy Virus: Food Services Adm & Support Services Manager Links to Resources and Information from our Guests: The City’s free food and meal finder, phila.gov/food, is available in 6 languages and searchable by address SDP Office of Research and Evaluation reports on SDP food insecurity data and research SDP food insecurity open data files Eat Right Philly, SDP’s SNAP-Ed funded nutrition and wellness program Community solutions to food apartheid: A spatial analysis of community food-growing spaces and neighborhood demographics in Philadelphia Inquirer article on the Urban Agriculture Strategic Plan City’s first Urban Agriculture Strategic Plan, “Growing from the Root” BenePhilly FPAC Anti-Hunger Subcommittee meets virtually on the third Tuesday of the month from 3:00-4:30 pm Philadelphia Food Policy Advisory Council (FPAC) OCF Community Schools OCF Food Access Blog Office of Children and Families OCF Social Media: Instagram, Facebook, Twitter Urban Agriculture Strategic Plan This podcast is about cultivating prosperity and liberation for students and staff, families, and the SDP community at large.
