What: “Rally Against Displacement”

Who: Union United Coalition

When: Friday, April 1st from 3:00-5:00PM

Where: Union Square Plaza

With extensive development in the works and a white-hot speculative property market, displacement of residents and businesses is an urgent issue in Union Square and across Somerville. Responsive and responsible development can help mitigate displacement if all stakeholders have a voice in the process.

Union United members will share their stories of displacement as well as concrete ways the community and city can work together to support development without displacement. Please join us to stand together in solidarity to protect our neighbors and the city we love and share our story.

For more information, contact: Kristen Lucas at 412-445-7212 or kristen.h.lucas@gmail.com

Union United is a coalition of stakeholders in Somerville, MA including small business owners, residents, activists, immigrant groups, religious congregations, labor unions, and community-based organizations working to ensure that the Union Square redevelopment process results in tangible benefits – not displacement – for the Union Square community.
