May 10: SSMMA to participate in two On the Table events

On the Table is an annual forum, founded by the Chicago Community Trust,  designed to elevate civic conversation, foster new relationships and create a unifying experience across the region. On May 10, 2016 thousands of Chicago-area residents will gather in small groups to share a meal and discuss the challenges and opportunities we face. These conversations can inspire new ways we can work together to make our communities stronger, safer and more dynamic.

SSMMA is participating in two On the Table events: Mayors for Manufacturing at Prairie State College in Chicago Heights (see details here), and a “Where Does it Connect? Vacant properties, Foreclosures, and Public Health” luncheon at the SSMMA offices. Let’s gather, share a bite to eat, and talk about how we can improve our community. We will be discussing the ways that the Housing Collaborative can connect all of its initiatives, including its newest public health campaigns.

When: 5/10/2016, 11:30 a.m. Location: South Suburban Mayors and Managers Association 1904 W. 174th St East Hazel Crest, IL 60429 RSVP: here
