Advocacy Action: Town Hall Meetings
Posted November 4, 2011 by Mandy Smith in Advocacy
The Big Tent Coalition and Kansans for Quality Communities are teaming up to bring Town Hall meetings to towns across Kansas. The purpose is to “discuss the impact of continuing budget cuts on vital state services and the ramifications of eliminating the Kansas income tax.”
The Resource Center for Independent Living is working to ensure that our consumers and community partners know about and are able to attend these important events. At each event, Legislators and media outlets have been invited, this is a perfect time to visually represent the disability community’s commitment to advocating for needed services, programs, and equality.
The schedule for the Town Hall Meetings is as follows:
- Salina – November 8th at 5:30pm South High School Commons Area, 730 E. Magnolia, Salina
- Lawrence – November 9th at 5:00pm Carnegie Building, 200 W. 9th Street, Heritage Room, Lawrence
- Pittsburg – November 10th at 4:30pm Pittsburg Auditorium, Rooms B-6 and B-7 (basement), 503 N. Pine, Pittsburg
