Mapping with Michigan's Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission
Urban Core Collective
Join the Urban Core Collective and LINC Up as we travel to the MICRC (Michigan's Independent Citizens Redistricting Commission) meeting to provide public comment on the new maps that the commission is responsible for drawing. These maps will determine voting districts and who we can vote for to represent us in public office for the next decade. We will provide transportation via bus from LINC Up, and you're welcome to drive yourself if you prefer. A meal will be provided prior to our departure to the meeting.

Urban Core Collective
Through the personal testimony of folks who are currently involved in elections and public office, we'll break down the myths associated with:
- who is qualified to run for office
- what it’s like to be an elected official, and
- ways to get involved in electoral politics without running for office
