The Arkansas Peace & Justice Memorial Movement (APJMM) has partnered with Just Communities of Arkansas (JCA) and the UCA Center for Community and Economic Development to launch the inaugural Arkansas 28-Day Racial Equity & Social Justice Challenge, beginning February 1st.
The Challenge will provide a virtual platform to engage citizens throughout Arkansas to participate in self-guided daily learning activities that aim to educate and help individuals develop more effective racial equity and social justice habits around issues of power, privilege and leadership.
