A very important meeting, “Let’s Start a Crucial Conversation,” will take place from 5:30 to 7:30 PM on October 27th at the YWCA, 185 S. French Broad Avenue.  Sponsored by Women for Women in partnership with AAUW, YWCA, League of Women Voters, Children First, United Way and Just Economics, “Let’s Start a Crucial Conversation!” is a discussion about our community and its sustainability. Whether we’re talking education, healthcare, recreation or public safety, government has a role to play. Louisa Warren and Alexandra Sirota from the Budget and Tax Center will show us how North Carolina can modernize its revenue system to ensure adequate resources to support long-term public investments. The Budget and Tax Center is a project of the N.C. Justice Center, an organization that seeks to create economic opportunity and shared prosperity for all North Carolinians through non-partisan research, education and advocacy on budget, tax and economic issues.
