<font size="2">SPNA extends a special thank you to our neighbors &
fellow neighborhood groups who joined us in committing our focus to championing
racial equity & ensuring our neighborhoods are welcoming to all residents,
especially our neighbors who are Black, Indigenous & People of Color (BIPOC).
As we move forward with specific programs for these goals SPNA will announce those
activities as they occur plus invite you to participate. Listed below are some areas
that we’re currently moving forward in support of SPNA’s goals for racial
equity:</font>
