Community Conversations on housing
In the past year, there have been 218 foreclosures in our area, including 155 in Plymouth and 18 in Wayzata. The western suburbs will need more than 1,800 affordable housing units in the next 12 years, but currently none are under construction. What are your perceptions of the housing issues in our community, and what advice do you have about increasing awareness of the needs and engaging broader involvement in the Sleep Out? Join LaDonna Hoy, IOCP executive director, at IOCP to discuss ways IOCP can better inform and engage others. Your input is critical! Call Jill Kohler (952-404-9388) to reserve a place on one of the following dates. Lunch/refreshments will be provided.
Tuesday, Dec. 2, 5–6 p.m.
Wednesday, Dec. 10, 12:30–1:30 p.m.
Monday, Dec. 15, noon–1 p.m.

Miles coordinates the sleep out with the kids each year; he's standing by the goal chart—they hope to raise $15,000 and have already brought in $4,000.
