Join us Monday, November 11 to talk through this election and think ahead
With the election of Donald Trump, we know that there will be serious consequences in all our lives. We have our work cut out for us, but what keeps us strong and safe is our relationships, and we will keep building and organizing to prepare ourselves and our neighbors from what’s to come.
Join us for a community meeting where we will take space to connect with each other, reflect on the meaning of this election, and talk through what will come next and how we can be prepared.
We are stronger together. The antidote to despair is action. Let’s come together.
