Join 5th Square for our October General Meeting at Industrious, and a special meet-and-greet with Councilwoman Helen Gym!

We'll spend the first 30 minutes of the meeting hearing updates from our committee leaders for Organizing and Elections, Transit, Philly YIMBY, and Marketing about all the great work they've been doing over the past few months as we prepare for 2019, and where they have the greatest need for more volunteers to help out.

After that, we'll hear from Councilwoman Gym about her work to date on some of 5th Square's issue priorities like Vision Zero and street safety, and where she sees opportunities to align with some of our upcoming advocacy priorities this year, particularly around transit. Councilwoman Gym was one of two At-Large candidates endorsed by 5th Square to win election in 2015, and has been a key ally on Council. We're looking forward to a spirited discussion!
