Futurewise [futurewise.org] is looking for volunteers for the upcoming launch of our upcoming 2023 campaign! Futurewise works throughout Washington state to encourage healthy, equitable and opportunity-rich communities, and to protect our most valuable farmlands, forests and water resources through wise land use policies and practices. Last year we worked to pass laws to prevent urban sprawl, address income and racial-based housing discrimination, and more.
This year, we’re working to increase affordable housing, improve public transit, and add climate change commitments to city development. In order to do this, we need to show Washington’s leaders that we care about living in an equitable and affordable future. We’ll do this through sending hundreds of emails, getting covered by the media, and lobbying elected officials in Olympia, virtually and in-person. But we need your help! [futurewise.salsalabs.org]
Whether you’ve been involved on a local level before or not, we’re looking for passionate volunteers to help out and learn skills needed to be an effective activist. Interested or want to learn more? Fill out this interest form to get connected. [docs.google.com]
