A launch event for the program will be at 5 p.m. Friday, May 7, at Fruita Civic Center Park with an open community discussion about equality, race, diversity and inclusivity, according to a news release from Mesa County Libraries, which is one of the collaborators for the program.

We are excited to share this narrative with our community and hope that it sparks a healthy discussion on community values,â said Shanachie Carroll, a member of the Fruita for Equality community and manager of the Fruita Branch library, in the news release.
