LA supportive housing provider in NYC now for the Clinton Global Initiative
A supportive housing provider recognized by the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) is in town TODAY and would love to meet the members of our community! You can RSVP to this impromptu event here.
Step Up on Second is in NYC this week to attend the 2013 CGI Annual Meeting. We’ve worked together to arrange a casual gathering between Step Up and the members of the New York supportive housing community at a happy hour Tweetup TODAY at 6pm. Those in attendance will meet the Step Up executive team and members of its Board of Directors. Staff members from the Network will also be in attendance, as will other attendees of the CGI Annual Meeting. The first drink, “The CGI Special,” is on the house.
Step Up on Second is one of the Clinton Global Initiative’s 2010 Commitments to Action. This commitment is to create 200 units of supportive housing, using multiple green technologies in Hollywood, by 2014. As a result of this initiative, Step Up has hosted fundraisers with President Bill Clinton and Kobe Bryant, including one held earlier this year for a supportive housing project for transitional aged youth. You'll find video of President Clinton's speech from the event below.
