February Meeting, Updates, and Action Items

Our young organization has been busy the last month, thanks for all who have joined us! 

Our greatest strength is our voice, so get involved in any way you can. 





Attend our next meeting on 2/21. 

Will have a presentation on the history of ABQ housing development, red lining, and next steps. 

We will also be sharing more information on how you can get involved in Strong Towns issues in ABQ.

Summary of January meeting

We had a great turnout at our January meeting. We created mission statements for our group, collected ideas about next steps and projects to tackle, and got to know each other a bit more. 

Thanks so all who joined and actively participated. It was fun and informative!
