Food for Thought Worksession on Housing Success Stories

At the next Food for Thought worksession, the Assembly will hear from local housing providers on success stories from the work to house some of Anchorage's most vulnerable residents. Food for Thought is a series of worksessions over the Friday lunch hour for the Assembly to welcome community partners to share good things happening in our community.

"I started Food for Thought because our focus is often on things that are going wrong, so I wanted to take some time to appreciate the many things that are going right in our community," said Assembly Chair Christopher Constant. "I wanted the Assembly to be able to step back and ask "what's good Anchorage?"
