We are excited to announce that Amy Dain, author of Exclusionary by Design, will be speaking at First Parish Church in Weston.

Amy is a leading expert on housing policy in Massachusetts and has extensively researched zoning by-laws. Her presentation will provide valuable insights into how these policies shape our communities and what they mean for the future of housing in our state and local community.

Exclusionary by Design is a report commissioned by Boston Indicators and the Boston Foundation which examines how zoning policy over the past century has been used to shape the de facto segregation of Greater Boston along racial and class lines. Read the original press release from the Boston Foundation or check out the full report (PDF).

Whether you are concerned about affordable housing, community development, or the long-term implications of zoning reform, this is a timely and important conversation you won’t want to miss. Please join us for this engaging and informative event. All are welcome!
