Join AIM in May and June 2022 to participate in our series of countywide candidate actions!
These actions are about people power—coming together as a diverse, 30+-institution-strong coalition to show the power of our voice and our vote. You will take part in a small group that meets with candidates directly to ask pointed questions about key AIM issues like affordable housing, childcare, and more.
All 2022 AIM candidate actions will be held as hybrid events in-person and on Zoom.
RSVP today to claim your voice and join us in holding candidates accountable in 2022!
