Sustain Charlotte Connects: What now? The power of local action
February 25 - 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
In light of the devastating federal Executive Orders that threaten to roll back decades of progress on equity and environmental health, do individuals still have any power to make a difference in politics? Yes! You’ll hear inspiring examples of how people are working together at the local level in Charlotte to build momentum on critical sustainability issues — and how you can join the movement. We’ll share practical info about how to invite your elected officials to meet with you, speak at a City Council or the County Commission meeting, serve on an advisory board, and partner with like-minded people to be more powerful together!
Featuring a moderated panel discussion including:
Tonya Jameson, Leading on Opportunity
Joi Mayo, Transforming Nations Ford
Billie Anderson, CleanAIRE NC
Join us for light refreshments and mingling at 6:00. The program will begin at 6:30pm.
After the program, we will open the floor for audience Q&A.
