EP. 9 How you can use $3.7 million to help transform White Center with Gloria Briggs
Manage episode 317353658 series 2376639
When government determines how to allocate budgets for a city or neighborhood, marginalized communities can become the least represented in these processes. We sat down with Gloria Briggs Manager at King County overseeing what is called a Participatory Budget (PB) to understand how this unique budgeting model can put power back in the hands of the people. Gloria shares her early story of White Center, how the Community Investment Budget Committee members (CIBC, designers of the PB process) were selected and her hopes on how this can impact WC.
