Food security and faith-based nonprofits, #BLM and racial justice with Rusty Price

This week, we invite Rusty Price to the podcast to discuss the work of Camino Community Center, a nonprofit that works in solidarity with the Latino and immigrant community in Charlotte, NC. Rusty describes how the spirit of “dale” - do it! - helps his staff stay mission-focused and open to opportunities of growth and newness. Rusty also describes how Camino transitioned with the arrival of the Covid-19 pandemic to drastically increase the capacity of its food bank to address rising food insecurity needs among community members. We also discuss the recent police shooting of Jacob Blake by a White police officer in Kenosha, Wisconsin, as well as questions and next steps for nonprofits to consider in continuing the work of advancing racial justice.
