Once a month the membership of the MSPJC comes together to get updated on the work already happening and set the direction for future work. This month’s meeting is on February 13 from 6-7:30pm at your offices at 3573 Southern Ave. All members and folks interested in joining should attend. It is a potluck if you can event, so please bring a dish if you are able. If not able, please just bring yourself, we always have plenty of food & drink!
Here are a few of the topics currently set on the agenda for discussion:
- Report back from our current campaigns: H.O.P.E. on plans to establish the Streetwise Inc. Workers Coop and Project Homeless Connect; Community Police Relations will report back on progress to develop a community led vision of how we deal with crime and violence in Memphis; and an update on the Peoples Lobby Day scheduled for March 12, 2013 in Nashville.
- The Center is staffing the Social Equity workgroup for a regional effort to establish a community greenprint vision for our community. We will update folks on our progress and let you know more about the first community meeting for this effort on February 19.
- We have several trainings & workshops coming up to plan for and need membership input and leadership!
If you would like to have an item added to the agenda or have any comments, questions, or concerns, please email us at jacob@midsouthpeace.org.
