Thousands of people registered to vote, enrolled in courses, networked with neighbors… bc of the F2F and virtual spaces where @UCBoston members interact. Orgs that facilitate (& celebrate) civic engagement can improve individual outcomes & build social capital in neighborhoods.

Housing affects EVERYONE. First time homebuyers, public housing tenants, returning citizens–we ALL deserve a place to call home. That’s why our campaign is so ambitious. Tonight’s guests remind us that we are part of something greater and worth fighting for! #PowerUp #GBIO

Rabbi Toba Spitzer: Tonight is all about deciding to go all-in and reminding ourselves why we NEED to demand a real political shift with regard to the housing crisis. Our goals are BIG, so our energy has to be bigger. #PowerUp

#mapoli reminder that the state owns this property and slumlord is not where we want to be on this. “Massachusetts’ public housing is deteriorating. The cost to fix it could be billions. - The Boston Globe.

The state public housing portfolio has gone so underfunded for so long that many of the buildings are in a state of chronic disrepair. Its residents — some of the state's poorest — pay the price.

“It is a blessing to have a home for my family, but the conditions — the mice and the stairs — can be challenging to endure,” said GBIO leader Pratika Pradhan , who lives in a state-funded building in Brookline with her two young children. #mapoli

In today's paper: Massachusetts’ public housing is deteriorating. The cost to fix it could be billions. For many mothers and daughters, instead of a rift, there’s Taylor Swift; and more. https://t.co/6MRRaLT8bp
