I hope you’ll join me at the next District V Coffee Club bi-weekly meeting, one of the best examples of grassroots civic engagement anywhere in our county. This week’s gathering will feature Angela Alsobrooks, who will lead a conversation on civic engagement and share how she’s settling into her role in the U.S. Senate.

The District V Coffee Club consistently creates space for thoughtful, grounded dialogue, bringing neighbors together to talk seriously about democracy, leadership, and our shared future. Events like this remind us that democracy works best when people show up, listen, and engage with one another directly.

Come grab a coffee, join the conversation, and see what community-powered democracy looks like in action.
