Homeless Strategy team hosts meetings
Tuesday, October 12, 2021 by Tai Moses
Almost no one in Austin doesn’t have an opinion about the homelessness crisis. Here’s a place to air those opinions and ideas – at one of two virtual public meetings hosted by the city’s Homeless Strategy Officer, Dianna Grey. Grey and her team will “share an overview of the city’s role in homelessness response and plans for expanding it by investing $106.7 million in American Rescue Plan Act funds.” Grey said in the news release, “As a community, we have an exciting opportunity to dramatically expand our homelessness response and make significant and sustainable change. As these plans are being formed, it’s important that we hear from community members and hear their feedback on the investments that will have the most impact.” Share your feedback on Thursday, Oct. 14, or Monday, Oct. 18. Both meetings start at 6:30 p.m. Register to attend on SpeakUp Austin.
