In this first webinar of a 3-part series, we will lay the groundwork for the current political context and implications for food and ag policymaking. The next 18 months are going to be critical for driving progressive policy change – it’s now or never. We will cover the American Jobs Plan and how this is our window of opportunity to deliver more funding for the 2023 Farm Bill to support regenerative agriculture initiatives, as well as other critical policy priorities, such as reparative policies that aim to support Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) who have been on the frontlines of the fights for food sovereignty, racial justice, climate justice, food security, worker justice, land justice, and environmental justice. Our goal with this webinar is to not only inform but to provide funders across the food and ag sector with both the context and the pathways for engaging in this critical moment, including the opportunities to partner with key policy advocacy groups who need our support in the coming months.

Speakers: Panelists for this discussion will include experts from NSAC, Native Farm Bill Coalition, Young Farmers Alliance, and other key policy and advocacy leaders
