It was awesome to give a presentation w/ my friends at the reciprocity collective {who do outreach w/ #unhoused folks in #denver} to a students from @DePaulU on #policy #advocacy & what it can look like when you center #communitypower #copolitics @ProgressNowCO 
There’s a beautiful thing that happens when we build policy with people most impacted, & leaders who understand social determinants of health, & students, & direct service providers. #copolitics #denverliving shout out to Amanda Orta - who runs programming for COVIVO #policy
Chicago has very similar niche #housing issues as #Denver - a group of parents from south side built policy development w/ #workingparents in Denver last yr - we convened it, it’s awesome to see parents & young ppl advocating for complex housing issues. In their communities.
We got to #storytell #write #envision and talk about a lot of hard and nerdy stuff like - like the effectiveness of housing vouchers, the FPL, non-profit industrial complex, the meaning of stability, expanding specific social services, #eviction prevention, oppression & #memory
