SOME, Inc. (So Others Might Eat), AARP and the Coalition of Homeless and Housing Organizations (COHHO) are holding a forum for the candidates in the April 23rd Special Election for the At-Large City Council position. This forum will give the general public the opportunity to hear candidates’ positions on a wide array of issues that affect District residents.

Have you heard about moveDC? It's the District Department of Transportation (DDOT)'s initiative to put together a coordinated, multimodal long range transportation plan, addressing all modes of transportation in the District.

The moveDC plan will incorporate livable streets, roadways, bicycles, pedestrians, transit, freight, maritime, and railroads, as well as an implementation element.
DDOT is doing a lot to encourage public participation and input into the plan. On February 9, they held a day-long public idea exchange, and are now transitioning into a series of four public input meetings across the city.

moveDC is the most important opportunity we'll have to influence the shape of transportation in D.C., so if you care about these issues, please let us know if you can attend by RSVPing with CSG.

BOOK RELEASE PARTY for Don’t Leave Your Friends Behind: Concrete Ways to Support Families in Social Justice Movements and Communities


Featuring coeditors Vikki Law and China Martens as well as Mark Andersen (contributor to Rad Dad) and area contributors.

Childcare will be provided!



Sponsored by PM Press, Positive Force, We Are Family, DC Childcare Collective, and the Washington Peace Center.

 Don’t Leave Your Friends Behind is a collection of concrete tips, suggestions, and narratives on ways that non-parents can support parents, children, and caregivers in their communities, social movements, and collective processes.

Don’t Leave Your Friends Behind focuses on issues affecting children and caregivers within the larger framework of social justice, mutual aid, and collective liberation.

How do we create new, nonhierarchical structures of support and mutual aid, and include all ages in the struggle for social justice?

Gather together this Friday to work on the specifics of future campaign planning. The meeting will focus on defining actions, responsibilities and deadlines for a campaign to transform trans access to health, housing and employment in DC.

Calling all popular educators, trainers, facilitators, instructors, teachers, and ANYONE interested in further developing those skills!

Hosted by the Washington Peace Center, this month’s skillshare will explore tools you can use to effectively approach conflict resolution in training and facilitation settings. We’re aiming to address questions like: when are the moments to process within in and with the entire group, and when is it appropriate to separate a conflict from the larger group setting? how can we turn conflict into teachable moments that support the learning of the entire group? What conflict resolution tools can we add to our toolkit, and when are they appropriate to use?

The DC Trainers’ Network monthly skillshare is a structured, interactive space where people can share skills and gain confidence in their training abilities and everybody is both a teacher and a learner. It strives to provide an inclusive practice space to experiment with different approaches for learning and teaching. This skillshare seeks to strengthen the DC activist community’s ability to meet the needs of progressive social movements.

Information Session & Rally building Support for Empower DC’s Lawsuit to STOP the planned closure of 15 DC Public Schools impacting over 2,700 students of color.
To Include: Introduction of Plaintiffs from impacted schools, Introduction of legal team, Review of the legal strategy, Expressions of Support, and Call to action!
