Copy of City SPIRIT

 Dear Community Partner,

As you may know, many members of our community have been working on issues related to safety and community-building in Lewiston-Auburn since last summer. While many of you have been partners in that work and have attended one or more meetings in support of the City-SPIRIT initiative, some of you may now be hearing about the City-SPIRIT initiative for the first time.  City-SPIRIT is a program which brings together diverse community stakeholders such as local government agencies, community groups, faith-based organizations, civil rights organizations, and law enforcement to identify issues impacting their community and develop collaborative solutions to reduce conflict, improve communication, and minimize the potential for future conflict.  For more information, please visit https://www.justice.gov/crs/our-work/facilitation/city-spirit.

The next City-SPIRIT meeting is scheduled for 10/15 from 11am-1:30pm at Bates College in Lewiston.

We’ll start with lunch in Commons from 11am-noon and will then head over to the Mays Center, 95 Russell Street, where we will begin our subcommittee work. In preparation, we ask that you complete the Google form here
