The 5 Day Challenge is an online training series designed to provide a space to learn about and reflect on racial equity and social justice - growing awareness in a self-paced learning environment. The short sessions typically take 10-30 minutes a day, and include readings, curated videos and self-reflection. These challenges, delivered in an engaging and convenient online e-learning format, seek to help County leaders discover how racial and social injustice can impact the community we serve and to identify ways to dismantle racism and other forms of discrimination. The employees are challenged to take a new course over the five days, resulting in a week of discovery and learning. This e-learning is the first educational opportunity in a series of planned training for County leadership, equipping them with the tools to be a leader in the movement toward racial justice and equity.
