There’s one problem. LA County ALREADY developed this. In 2019, a 25-person workgroup collaborated for one year to develop the Care First, Jails Last report. Among the 114 recommendations, the roadmap calls for an independent pretrial support agency to connect people to services.

Summer Street Steps will be valuable but underwhelming, falling far short of what was sold. The so-called “Grand Staircase” was presented with a wide landing. The landing was presented as “Performance Plaza.” A false impression of expanse was created at both building corners.

Read what justice-based permitting reform looks like for Indigenous communities. @NWAFound @SenatorCollins @SenAngusKing
NDN Collective@ndncollective

Today we sent @POTUS a letter urging him to reject the #DirtyDeal that would silence Indigenous voices, weaken progress made on Tribal consultation, & fast track dangerous fossil fuel projects near/on our sacred lands & waters. Read the full letter here: ndncollective.org/ndn-collective…

As for the design, this $200 million boondoggle places pedestrians on a promenade with an obstructed view of Boston Harbor. Pedestrians will be subjected to emissions, splashed rainwater and more. All this deck width for what? To get shuttles to a bottleneck at Atlantic Ave?

Northern Avenue has not been identified by any transit org as being a key gateway for future Seaport public transit. In fact, the the NAB Task Force didn't include a future Congress St BRT to North Station in the scope of its own viability study.

@FortPointer How were they able to book prime hours in a public place for such a long period of time? How comfortable would it be to have a business outing /cook out, or an all hands meeting on what is left of the grass. I am in total support of any green space in the ever changing area.

Overlords at Seaport Square have booked every single Mon, Tues, Weds and Thurs evening at peak hours (5:30 PM to 7:30 PM) for Zumba and yoga classes. All summer long. Because serving target markets maximizes profits. And no one ever says a word. bostonseaport.xyz/events

Sounds so simple to redefine portfolio performance: risk, return AND impact. Let’s just start doing it. From @AndiAtMaycomb during @ImpactPHL

@carolmassar @MilkenInstitute Yes. I’ll be at @ImpactPHL at the same time. How can we ensure attempts to revitalize disinvested communities don’t lead to gentrification? How do we make space for community members to not just have a seat at the planning table but have voice and power if they don’t have the $$?

I wish, for the sake of simplicity, I had one single thing I could point to and say this is the problem,” he said. “We have been saying this for a long time that this will get serious and it is now serious.  “We are in far more of a serious time now than we ever have been before.

Last year, Delta Health System in Greenville spent about $26 million on uncompensated care. That amounts to about 15% of its total operating expenses. Their leadership duo says that the hospital system’s survival will be “touch and go” after this year. mississippitoday.org/2023/03/21/mis…

“without a Safe Harbor law, Maryland criminalizes child trafficking victims, making them ineligible for an existing program specifically designed for them.” @ECPAT @RachelsNetwork @JaniesFund #humantrafficking
Maryland Matters || bsky @marylandmatters.org@marylandmatters

Selling a child for sex is a crime; being the child shouldn’t be. That’s why Maryland must pass a Safe Harbor bill to protect trafficked children from being charged as prostitutes, the executive director of TurnAround Inc. writes. marylandmatters.org/2023/03/13/opi…
