Akia Squitieri, BRAC Executive Director - Your Voice = Bronx Change!

 




RSVP today! 🎨

💡 Join us for BRAC’s first Idea Generation Workshop!

📍 Bronx River Art Center,

1087 E Tremont Ave, Bronx, NY

🗓️ Saturday, October 25

⏰ 11 AM – 1 PM


We’re thrilled to share that BRAC is partnering with The People’s Money, NYC’s citywide participatory budgeting process led by the Civic Engagement Commission (CEC)!


This initiative gives all New Yorkers ages 11 and up — regardless of immigration status — the power to decide how to spend part of the city budget right here in The Bronx. Through this process, residents can help fund creative, community-based projects that make our borough stronger, more vibrant, and more connected.


At this workshop, Bronx residents will brainstorm ideas for projects they want to see funded in their community. Your participation will directly shape which ideas move forward to become proposals on next year’s ballot — and by taking part, you’ll also help BRAC receive supportive funding through The People’s Money.

Enjoy a free lunch, childcare & live Spanish translation provided on-site, and enter our raffle for a chance to win a complimentary BRAC workshop or class!

Help us spread the word! Share this with friends, family, and neighbors — everyone age 11+ can join in. Together, we can ensure Bronx voices lead the way in shaping our borough’s future

See you there! 

Akia, Jhanique, Stephany, Ukari, and Richard 

The BRAC Team
