Join us to learn how DC’s budget works — and how you can shape it.

The DC budget impacts every aspect of our daily lives — from housing and public safety to education and transportation. But most of us never get to see how it works or have a say in how it’s spent. This event will break it down in plain language so we can all take action.

Hosted by the Fair Budget Coalition in partnership with ONE DC, this interactive session will cover:

• What is the current DC budget?
• How does it get dispersed?
• What does that mean for you and your community?
• How can you get involved in the budget process?

Bring your questions and curiosity — together we can make sure our city’s spending reflects our shared values.
