With 3 weeks until the election, expect MOORE FOR OUR CHILDREN! Richard Moore is a non-partisan, at-large candidate, running for School Board. REMEMBER HIS NAME!

Vote for MOORE and you will get more. Pun intended.

This afternoon, in honor of Hunger and Homelessness Awareness Week, we’re showing American Winter. American Winter is a docufilm that follows the personal stories of families struggling in the aftermath of the Great Recession. Filmed over the course of one winter in one American city, the film presents an intimate snapshot of the state of the nation's economy as it is playing out in millions of American families, and highlights the human consequences of the decline of the middle class and the fracturing of the American Dream.
