Community Virtual Meeting

We’ll start off in small group break-outs to find out how we’re all coping and being affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. We’ll then present the finalized Vision Morton Grove 2020-2021 platform which is the product of community input. The bulk of the meeting will be about building local power, running for office or helping a campaign as we look forward to the 2021 local election. We’re very excited to have two guest speakers, Atour Sargon & Ben Head. Atour Sargon was elected in 2019 to Lincolnwood’s Board of Trustees running on a platform of diversity, accountability and transparency. She’ll tell us why she decided to run for local office and how she won. Ben Head is a political consultant, community organizer and campaign manager experienced in local and congressional politics. He’ll talk about the nuts and bolts of running for office. There will be time for Q&A with both speakers. For security reasons, you need to register in advance for the meeting. To do so, please go to the Contact Us page to send us a message and we’ll email you with details.
