Several local initiatives are in the headlines this week. The Eden Prairie Human Rights and Diversity Commission is leading an initiative to address issues of race and equity in their City. In conjunction with this initiative, City leaders would like to hear about residents’ experiences to help identify strengths and challenges related to equity and inclusion in the community. The City is collaborating with Polco – a civic participation platform used to gather input. The Commission will present a final report and recommendations to the City Council in early 2021.
