It takes a village to bring the community together and hold each other accountable. Tonight’s Community Conversations was all about giving a voice to the voiceless and positioning leaders on the ground with the people. I’m extremely grateful for the community that filled…

The only way we’ll build a democracy people trust is by more actively engaging people — and then delivering on what they say. @nycspeaks2022 is the largest policy survey in NYC history & a critical way to ground our work. (No surprise affordable housing is the top of the list)
