⁨Public Forum: How to Save Seminary Pointe
Saturday, June 20th, 12-1:30PM in the Downtown Library Auditorium (303 E Kirkwood Ave)

Join us for a public forum on promoting affordable housing in Bloomington, Sat. 6/20, 12-1:30pm! Come learn about the campaign to prevent the destruction of super-affordable apartments at Seminary Pointe, and how you can help!

Homes 4 All will present the vision and 5-year plan for the Seminary Pointe block and the key steps that need to be taken by project stakeholders and local decision-makers to preserve it. In context of our current housing crisis, Homes 4 All will offer solutions guided by evidence-based cooperative models used locally—in Bloomington and the Midwest—that are already successful in improving affordability, the lives of tenants, and surrounding communities.

Light refreshments will be provided.
