State of Equity Policy Agenda Release @ Massachusetts State House Room 222
Feb 7 @ 10:00 am – 12:00 pm

Join us for the release of The State of Equity in Metro Boston Policy Agenda 2018.

In 2011, MAPC released “The State of Equity in Metro Boston,” a report providing compelling detail on inequality across many dimensions: housing, transportation, public health, and employment. In response, the MAPC Executive Committee adopted “The State of Equity in Metro Boston Policy Agenda.” In 2017, MAPC produced a five-year update to the State of Equity report which found that some progress had been made and that challenges remain.

The updated equity policy agenda represents a new proposal for collective action to strengthen the region and unlock the potential in all residents across Metro Boston.

West Station Forum
Jun 10 @ 5:00 pm – 6:15 pm
Are you interested in sustainable transportation and equitable development about the future West Station in Allston?
On Wednesday, June 10, MAPC will provide an update on work completed so far, and you’ll have a chance to collaborate (virtually!) with other meeting attendees and MAPC staff in small group discussions.
Your input will be used to create a range of land use and transportation scenarios for the future of West Station once the interchange is reconstructed. Those scenarios will be evaluated to estimate how they will affect transit use, walking and biking, vehicle emissions, health outcomes, and access to opportunity.
