working with CM Allen
One of our members submitted a question via video to Councilmember Charles Allen during his June 4th, 2020 Ward 6 Virtual Budget Town Hall. The question asked the Councilmember if he would work with the group to implement the ideas and policy recommendations we came up with to help SW be the "exemplary model of equity and inclusion" we want it to be.
Update: We met with CM Allen on September 17, 2020 as a follow-up. You can check out the presentation here.
