Homeless advocate to speak at Carson City Democratic luncheon
Dee Dee Foremaster, executive director of the Rural Center for Independent Living and Do Drop In day refuge for the homeless and mentally ill, will be the featured speaker at Monday's Carson City Democratic luncheon. The topic of her presentation will be "Frozen Out: Why Carson's shrinking supply of affordable housing has put the city's most vulnerable at the mercy of cold weather and cold hearts."
This event is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. on Monday, Dec. 17, in the banquet room of Carson City's Round Table, on Retail Drive just off College Parkway.
What's for lunch? Round Table currently offers two low-cost lunchtime specials: an all-you-can-eat buffet with six types of pizza and salad bar for $7.99, and a 10-inch pizza with toppings of your choice for $5.
Sponsored by the Democratic Men's Committee, these luncheons help defer expenses at Carson's Democratic HQ while affording the community an opportunity to engage with candidates, office holders, subject matter experts and public policy advocates in an unstructured and informal atmosphere. Donations of $5 or more gratefully accepted but are not required. All are welcome.
