Unfortunately we have had to reschedule yesterday's social, so we will see you all instead in two weeks, on September 28th!

Heads up that the location on the image is wrong since the Grape & Wine Festival will be happening in Montebello Park at that time. We will update soon with the new location.

Hopefully the weather will be a little cooler for us this time! See you all soon.

I don't post about local things as much as I'd like to here, since we are still building up community on niagara.social, so I haven't posted about what's been going on at City Hall, but I wanted to share this statement.

The approach many local politicians have taken to encampments and houseless has been grimly racist, classist and ableist, all with a smiling face as per usual in 21st century Canadian settler colonialism. I am very thankful for all of the work the NRNC does, and for this statement in particular.

We encourage people to trust the unhoused to make the best decisions for themselves with where money goes, instead of letting an outside agency determine for them.

#DisabilityJustice #MutualAid #CommunityCare #NiagaraCommunity #NiagaraON #WeKeepUsSafe

The City of Niagara Falls recently put up anti-panhandling signs to deter people from supporting unhoused people directly, instead directing them to a couple of local charity organizations. We want to take a moment here to distinguish between charity and mutual aid.

Our next social is coming up in just under two weeks! Masks required, and we have lots if you need some. See you all soon!
