Friends and community members!
Join us for a
light dinner and a Community Forum on the topic of building a Sanctuary
City in the Lower Mainland. Based on consultations over the last few
months, we will be:
1) Giving a brief overview of work that has
happened so far and presenting a draft list of necessary principles for
our campaign
2) Discussing proposals for creating a Sanctuary City
(or Sanctuary Cities) here, including sector-specific proposals for
service providers
3) Outlining and discussing ways for each of us to
get involved in organizing towards a community where all members,
regardless of status, can access services without fear
