Breaking Bread, Building Bonds is a citywide initiative from Mayor Eric Adams that cultivates the immense diversity of our city and brings everyday New Yorkers together around meals to learn about common bonds, share cultures and traditions, and break down silos between communities. There is more that bonds us than divides us - these efforts seek to unite New Yorkers regardless of their background, build understanding, and aid in ending bias, hate, and discrimination.

This initiative is being led by the Office for the Prevention of Hate Crimes (OPHC), Mayor's Community Affairs Unit (CAU), and the City Commission on Human Rights (CCHR). To host or participate in a meal and to learn more, please visit the main website for Breaking Bread, Building Bonds here.
