3358 Cesar Chavez Street - the Day Labor Program

The Day Labor Program, the Mission Anti-Displacement Coalition (MAC), St.
Peter's Housing Committee, Bernal Heights Neighborhood Center, Dolores
Street Community Services, and others are working to convince a developer of
luxury condos to sell us the space on the corner of Cesar Chavez and Mission
Blvd. in order to build a large worker center on the ground floor and
affordable housing for low-income folks and their families.



Day Laborers, Immigrants, and low income folks are sick of the rich kicking
them out of their space and destroying their community!!! We need to do a
bit more convincing to make sure the developer turns over the land.



The developer has organized a community meeting to receive input on his
proposal for luxury condos and yet another Walgreens! We need to arrive in
MASS in order to tell him what we want. We need your help to make sure there
are more of us then those that want to rid the streets of day laborers. So
here's the plan and we hope hope hope you join us!!!



Meet at the Day Labor Program at 5:00 p.m. to have dinner together and
briefly organize. Walk over to St. Lucas Hospital at 5:50 p.m. so we arrive
to the community meeting which starts at 6:00 p.m. We hope you can join us
at the program, but if not, please meet us directly at the meeting.



When? Tuesday 2/13/07

Time? 5:00 p.m.

Address? 3358 Cesar Chavez Street - the Day Labor Program

Why? To preserve the land for those who work it!!!



Questions??? Call Renee Saucedo at (415) 553-3404
