Orientation: People’s Budget Amendment

What is the People’s Budget amendment? Who is the Community Democracy Project (CDP)? How do I become a member of CDP? How do I get on their mailing list? How do I get on their extra special contact list to get personalized text messages about upcoming events? When is CDP launching? What are they launching? What is participatory budgeting? Why do they want the residents of Oakland to decide the entire city budget? Who’s funding this project? Who’s leading it? Why should I join CDP? Do I get a prize or like… earn a badge for joining?

If you have ANY of these questions, join us for this informal Q&A session! If you know any of the answers already, join the orientation to help answer them from your own perspective! If you follow us on social media and want to get MORE involved, then join us to learn about the first step to joining this revolution!

Once all of the questions are exhausted, and you feel fully oriented, our orientation will turn into what was our regularly scheduled Hella People Power Happy Hour where we play games or do whatever you like!
