Second Saturday Meeting
Second Saturday Meeting
Join us to learn about news and events coming up in your local Democratic Party.
This event will be broken into three parts:
First will be a panel of folks who were part of passing the Fair Housing Ordinance in 1968 and establishing the Housing Center in 1972.
Then a panel of current housing and community leaders will talk about the current status of fair housing, integration, and inclusion in Oak Park.
The event will also include a COMMUNITY BRAINSTORM where YOU will be able to describe what you hope the future of Oak Park's fair housing and equity reality should be. A report back the the group will end the day.

My heart goes out to the people of Maywood and the family of my dear friend, Karen Yarbrough. For decades, Proviso Township could always count on the fact they had a champion fighting on their behalf in state and local government.
I first met Karen nearly three decades ago and have admired her ever since. She had an infectious enthusiasm for people and her mere presence brought ease, comfort, stability, and warmth to every room and any situation.
Her long tenure in public life and multiple leadership positions in the Democratic Party were no accident. They were the product of hard work, dedication, and a deep affinity for the wellbeing of others.
My thoughts and prayers are with Henderson, her family, and all of us reeling from losing one of our dear friends and most steadfast partners in the pursuit of a better community. -Don Harmon, Committeeman
