Fair Budget Coalition Issue Briefing -- Workforce Development and Income Support
Please join the D.C. Fair Budget Coalition for a series of interactive Breakfast Briefings on upcoming Fridays from 9:30 to 11:00 a.m.
In the District, high unemployment and underemployment, lack of affordable housing, and increased food insecurity - combined with a terrible recession - are impacting all the residents of our city. And our most vulnerable residents are teetering on the brink of disaster. Fortunately, there are solutions at hand.
Come learn from the experts at the Breakfast Briefings about current issues in:
-
- Workforce Development and Income Support - February 5
- Youth and Families - February 12
- Housing - February 19
- Health - February 29
Briefings will be held in Rooms 103 or 104. A light breakfast will be served.
We look forward to discussing with you opportunities to support the city's low-income residents, draw federal dollars into the District, and invest in our city's future.
