LOCATION
Mayor Katjana Ballantyne and the City of Somerville’s Department of Racial and Social Justice (RSJ) are sharing an opportunity for community members to join the vital work of the City’s Anti-Displacement Task Force (ADTF) by contributing their experiences with displacement for a public video series the ADTF is creating to show how displacement affects real people in Somerville and why anti-displacement efforts are so important to helping our community stay together.
The videos will help inform the work of the ADTF, which aims to create programming and policy recommendations to help equitably reduce displacement rates for residents, business owners, and those who contribute to the cultural fabric of Somerville. Please note that all video recordings have the potential to be shared publicly.
Participants have the option of either joining a recording session hosted by the Task Force or submitting a self-recorded video.
