NSPC’s March meeting has been moved to March 19th due to snow. We will hear from Chris Kluchman about the State’s Housing Choice Initiative.
We will be joined by Francis Goyes, MAPC’s Regional Housing and Land Use Planner, to hear about her “Living Little” work that takes a look at smaller housing typologies and how they may be translated into the NSPC region. We’ll also be joined by Sharon Ron, MAPC’s Public Health Research Analyst to discuss what it means to plan for healthy living and healthy housing.
Join us for a night of appetizers, drinks and conversation with cross-sector professionals that are working to create buy-in, trust, and inclusion with an array of audiences. Connect with other practitioners working in industries such as community development, urban planning, design, nonprofit, public relations, conflict resolution, public health, education, social work, communications and media, local government, law and more. This event will allow you to build your network, learn new strategies, and enjoy a fun night out.
