Housing & Policy Advocacy Group Working Session

To enable easier access, this meeting will be a virtual/in-person hybrid meeting — join us in person Downtown (RSVP for address), or via Zoom.

This Working Session will be in preparation for our Policy Roundtable on 5/22 with Boston City Councilor At-Large Henry Santana, along with updates on our advocacy campaigns including Trans Youth Shelter and Right to Counsel (legal representation for tenants facing eviction).

The TQNC Housing & Policy Advocacy Group arose based on consistent feedback from TQNC Community Connection attendees & member surveys over the course of 10+ months that community members want to advocate for policy changes — and that housing in particular is the most urgent advocacy area in dire need of action.

Current group priorities include housing, transit/transportation, healthcare, and queer youth community centers.

And we’re working together following a “just fucking do shit” attitude, while welcoming anyone who wants to participate, regardless of knowledge or experience. Our working sessions are collaborative groups — you’ll get to learn from, work with, and contribute to the conversation however works for you.
