    Patrick Hendricks, Abby Miller, and Yendra Ruiz T. are part of City Thread’s story, and vision to help city government and residents work better together. More than board members they are thought partners, fun to be around, and good humans. I have so many things to be grateful for, and these three are on the list.

    We’re still reminiscing about the fun we had at our recent board retreat. We kicked it off with a block print workshop led by our friend and colleague, Nick Aguilera. Each of us created our own block print stamp inspired by "a place that makes us happy" or "where we feel connected to our community." Stay tuned to see what we’re cooking up next!

    Spokane, WA has invested in affordable housing but hasn’t been aggressive with its transportation infrastructure, until now. Bringing the two together, along with an active, diverse coalition already in place, will be a game-changer for this city of 230,000 residents. We’re excited to roll up our sleeves and get to work.
