Protect Our Community: Action Planning Day

We gathered in the rain to express our solidarity, and now we are ready to get to work! Led by non-profit leaders and community members, we will break into 3 working groups, to share up-to-date information and community concerns, and promote actions that everyone can take.

To protect our community, the organizations listed below believe that:

  • Undocumented immigrants and the Dreamers must be protected
  • Hate crimes will not be tolerated and constitutional rights must be protected
  • Affordable healthcare must be maintained

City Hall guidelines request registration;
FREE tickets are available at Eventbrite

Limited walk-in space will be available.
