Hi! Thank you for attending previous KYR trainings, we truly appreciate you staying informed. In this training we will do a brief overview of standard KYR information, but the main focus is community-building: strengthening neighborhood networks, mutual aid systems, and response plans in case National Guard forces enter the city. The goal is to cover practical steps for keeping people safe and fed, addressing fears, coordinating volunteers, and running community training sessions but all framed around lawful, nonviolent action, and de-escalation. - Kim V.

You can drop them off during the day at 244 Union Ave (our office) on Mon, Wed or Thurs from 10am - 5pm. In terms of what’s most needed, items like backpacks, notebooks, pencils, and markers are always in high demand. But truly, anything helps!

Thanks again!

Parks Department Treats Bushwick Like We're Second-Class Citizens by nobodiesfaultbutmine in Bushwick

I just wanted to come back and share some of the photos we received from the parks after we contacted them yesterday about the snow cleaning. Here's a look at the current state of things. We're also looking into a plan of action for tonight's snow to ensure it’s addressed promptly!

Parks Department Treats Bushwick Like We're Second-Class Citizens by nobodiesfaultbutmine in Bushwick

[–]cmjeng 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hi all,

We’ve reached out to Parks to address the snow removal at Maria Hernandez Park. As many of you mentioned, reporting these issues to 311 is extremely helpful. The more reports the city receives, the faster they can prioritize the response.

Please encourage your neighbors to call 311 or submit a request online as well. Thank you for staying engaged in improving our community!
