RePHRAME - things moving in the right direction


RePHRAME Meeting
5:30PM
Thursday, December 17
123 E. Broad St. (Legal Aid Justice Center)
Facilitating Partner: Richmond Jobs With Justice

Dear RePHRAME,

Some exciting things are in the works.  We still have a ways to go, but we are making progress… 

Recent meetings with RRHA and City Council have been encouraging, and we have opportunities for involvement in the coming weeks.  More details to come on December 17, so please make plans to attend.  Also, it helps a lot to know how many to expect at the meeting.  If possible, please let us know whether you plan to attend.

(Note to Partner Organizations (POs): Please try to send at least one representative on the 17th.  Thanks to your hard work and support and the hard work of this committee, our process of creating guidelines for PO participation is nearing completion!)

Finally, we plan to start having regular conference calls to update each other on a proposal by RRHA to use “Project-Based Vouchers” as replacement units for public housing.  If you want to participate in these calls, please reply.

Have a great weekend, and see you on the 17th!
