Note: This event takes place in-person from 12:00-1:30 PM CT.

Come connect with neighbors around the North Lawndale area and be part of a national conversation about what the American Dream means to you. Coffee and refreshments from the beelove café will be served and $300 worth of raffles for participants at the end of the event. This event is open to people who live in and around the North Lawndale area of Chicago.

As we approach the United States’ 250th anniversary, we want to hear from you what can help you achieve your version of the American Dream and financial prosperity. What do you love about your community and what do you want to improve? Our CivicSpace team will share and amplify what we hear from these conversations as part of a national Us@250 initiative. We will also use what we learn to guide New America Chicago's research and policy priorities for the coming years.

Please fill out the RSVP form to indicate your attendance and so we can account for coffee, refreshments, and seating. If you're no longer able to attend please email or call Vanessa Rangel at rangel@newamerica.org or (773) 738-6086.
