DivComm is rallying our community to take direct, tangible action by joining us Wednesday 11/19 at Houston Hall, for a Food Drive to support The Door, a youth development organization in Lower Manhattan.
As part of the food drive, Houston Hall is giving our one free beer for every donation of a non perishable item!
As planners, advocates, and New Yorkers, we know our city runs on connection and care. Right now, the federal government is neglecting the social safety nets that keep people insured, safe, and fed. This has created real uncertainty for families who rely on SNAP. Across the city, people are feeling the strain, and we can’t look away.
Join us next week at Houston Hall to support The Door and discuss ideas on how we can mobilize to meet this moment!
