A photo recap from our City Workshop that took place in mid-March.

First of all, we want to thank everyone who showed up on a Saturday morning! Together, we broke down city budgets slice by slice and explored exactly how much money is being spent on the priorities that matter most to our community.

Attendees had the chance to give feedback, ask questions, and learn how we can directly impact how our elected officials use our tax dollars.

We heard tons of common concerns, making it clear that our community would rather see their city budgets fund housing programs, better healthcare, and our youth’s education.

Also, thank you to the City of Santa Ana staff for coming to present their city budget and the community priorities survey: https://www.santa-ana.org/budget.

This is one of the many workshops we will be having around city policies and budgets, so follow us and stay tuned.
