The Numbers Tell the Story: Michigan’s $81 Billion Budget and What It Means for Us

Join this week’s VAAC Friday Community Meeting to unpack the state budget and its impact on our lives

VAAC Friday Community Meetings are a weekly space for connection, updates, and shared learning. Each Friday, we bring together directly impacted people, organizers, advocates, and community members from across Michigan to talk about voting access, criminal justice, and the policies shaping our communities.

This week’s discussion, “The Numbers Tell the Story,” will dive into Michigan’s finalized $81 billion state budget — and what it really means for us.

Guest presenters Tony Gant, Policy Consultant & Advocate for Justice-Impacted Communities, and Chuck Warpehoski, Program Director for the Michigan Collaborative to End Mass Incarceration (MI-CEMI), will help unpack key funding priorities — from housing and reentry to education, public safety, and voting access.

Friday, October 10
12:30–1:30 PM EST
Virtual on Zoom
