WA assisted 6 tenants this year in some form of tenant-landlord mediation to prevent evictions, complete repairs, and/or prep for court hearings. WA staff were able to spread awareness door-to-door within 2 major apartment ownerships, which in turn helped create one new tenant association along with facilitating several tenant support meetings. WA also passed along complaint forms and encouraged/made it accessible for tenants to submit and work with the Attorney General on investigation of rental owner/management, Investment Property Group. Prioritizing tenant rights and advocating for communal justice continue to drive the initiative WA takes into 2024. In 2022 Whittier Alliance along with 5 community partners, including neighborhood organizations and community based organizations, were chosen to partner with the city of Minneapolis for engagement on the Former Kmart site/New Nicollet Development. 2023 was focused on Phase 2 of the project, where the community participated in informing and creating the concept designs for public and street spaces. This year we saw an incredible turn out at city-led open houses, breaking attendance records for meetings of its kind. As the project moves into Phase 3 where developers and architects are brought in to figure out how to construct the site, we hope to continue centering the voices of the community in each step of the process. Beginning last June, the Community Engagement Committee began hosting a monthly dinner catered by local restaurants. In the months that have followed, the dinner has become increasingly popular, with many new and regular attendees from around the neighborhood each time. The dinner has been the scene for resource tabling and/or speakers from different organizations, including Hennepin County, the City of Minneapolis, and American Muslims for Palestine. In Fall of 2023, we were joined by local artist Anita White, who made sketches of some of our attendees, which she later developed into art panels to go around the Kmart site. 170463 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 5 0 true 3 true false false false false false false false false false false X 14 14 false false false false true true true true true false false true true true true true true true true false MN X The Organization 6128717756 10 East 25th Street Minneapolis MN 55404 Danny Villars Board chair 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Natalie Somerson Vice chair 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Kameron Brodie Secretary 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Kate Davis Treasurer 4.00 X X 0 0 0 Megan Mathew Board member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Stephanie Brown Board member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Nick Hutchinson Board member 4.00 X 0 0 0 George Rishmawi Board member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Sydney Burroughs Board Member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Jill Hamilton Board member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Jesse Oyervides Board member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Arjun Kataria Board member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Daniel Hansen Board member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Cyndi Hovey Board member 4.00 X 0 0 0 Kaley Brown Executive Director 40.00 X 75878 0 2609 75878 0 2609 false false false 194632 52139 150 246771 Development 531390 45138 0 0 45138 7052 0 7052 Other income 900099 1000 0 0 1000 1000 299961 45138 0 8052 8806 8806 81487 57041 20372 4074 38287 30630 7657 0 685 514 137 34 1048 786 210 52 10256 7692 2051 513 2695 0 2695 0 12053 0 12053 0 37397 35045 2352 0 10609 0 10609 0 1551 1551 0 0 19605 14704 3921 980 181 181 0 0 1854 0 1854 0 Event expense 7019 7019 0 0 Volunteer recognition 755 0 755 0 Community activation 6494 6494 0 0 Staff development 90 0 90 0 240872 170463 64756 5653 102626 166377 293627 300674 54362 42692 212191 212191 212191 662806 721934 427 466 427 466 X 662379 721468 662379 721468 662806 721934 59089 X false false false X 0 296626 381247 329913 216250 246771 1470807 0 0 296626 381247 329913 216250 246771 1470807 0 1470807 5620 3866 1531 1978 7052 20047 80 160 1080 1000 2320 0 1493174 71378 0.98500 0.98920 X 0 0 0 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 212191 212191 212191 Pt VI, Line 6 Membership is open to residents, business and property owners in Whittier.
