You are invited to join SF Community Living Campaign and SNA for a special meeting “Resilient Sunnyside” on Tuesday August 18th, 3:30-4:30 PM via Zoom. Meeting outline at the end of this post. Read more about resilient neighborhoods here.
From Community Living Campaign:
This is our fourth in a series and has been an important opportunity to exchange stories of hope, compassion, and joy about your neighbors during this pandemic.
The focus of the conversation is to hear stories about what is resonating and happening day-to-day with folks of how to stay safe and connected in the midst of Covid-19 while living sheltered in place. I will start off with your personal history with your neighborhood, and how your program has mobilized to meet the needs of your neighbors. I plan to then ask you to share an inspiring story about this unprecedented time in your neighborhoods. We will have time for Q&A as well.
Meeting outline found below. Zoom link: https://zoom.us/j/86567474200 for the Roundtable. If you have a question or idea that I should include in this conversation, let me know. Please promote this virtual conversation with your network of neighbors, friends, family, community groups and elected officials.
Be well, safe & sane,
