Dear Friend:
On Wednesday, August 26th, you will hear how Michael Withey won acceptance for tiny homes in Portland, Oregon, if you RSVP today by emailing contactmfac@gmail.com
Homeless advocates have done such a good job that the Mayor of Portland is embracing the concept of Micro Communities and the Council is approving affordable housing developments. We can learn how to influence our elected officials to share our belief that everyone has a right to a home. The link above is an interesting news clip about the advancement of tiny homes.
Please join us for our first Annual August ACTION Update. Come hear Michael Withey, find out what the Coalition has accomplished and how you can help define the next steps at any of three meetings listed below.
