REGISTER FOR THE WORKSHOP

The City of Boston recently released A Place to Thrive, its first-ever citywide Anti-Displacement Action Plan. As part of this work, the City is piloting new ways to work with community—like this workshop—to have more meaningful conversations about displacement. In a workshop hosted and facilitated by community partners, we’ll talk about what displacement means to you, learn about existing strategies and resources to stabilize residents, small businesses, and cultural institutions, and explore how we can strengthen the City’s anti-displacement work through your input.

Learn more about the City's anti-displacement work at boston.gov/anti-displacement.

Allston Brighton Coffee Hour

Mayor Wu’s Neighborhood Coffee Hours offer a unique opportunity to speak directly with the Mayor and staff from City departments about City services and resident concerns. Through personal conversations, and a suggestion box at each site, Mayor Wu looks forward to hearing how the City of Boston can improve parks, public areas, and City services.

A neighborhood staple known for bringing the community together over a cup of coffee, Dunkin’ is back to fuel the conversation with iced coffee and donuts. Dunkin’ will also provide lawn game activities for attendees, gift card giveaways, and the opportunity for residents to win a raffle prize. Free flowering plants will be provided by the Boston Parks and Recreation Department, while supplies last. Fresh fruit will be provided by Star Market.

Coffee hours are held from 10:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m., unless otherwise noted due to inclement weather.
