For October 2023, Civic Tech Toronto is focusing on housing. We've invited technologists, advocates, journalists and public servants to share their perspectives on one of Toronto's most pressing issues.

On Oct. 31, we'll be joined by **May Warren,** the Toronto Star's housing reporter. Before taking on the housing beat, she spent two years covering the pandemic, from the first days of the new virus in the city to the vaccine rollout. She's very interested in data journalism and has used data in her reporting on the pandemic, and now as part of the housing team.

**Join us via Zoom** (webcams and mics optional, but encouraged):

* A Zoom link will be made available to everyone who RSVPs!

**Agenda:**

* 7:00-7:20 = Welcome and Introductions
* 7:20-7:50 = Presentation and Q&A/discussion
* 7:50-9:00 = Breakout groups

**Accessibility:**

* We're exploring ways to make our hybrid hacknights more accessible. At the moment we provide video and audio of the presentation through Zoom and automated closed captioning.

**About Us:**

* Our weekly civic tech hacknights bring together Torontonians (designers, coders, urban planners, government staff, mappers, policy-makers, students, communications strategists, community organizers, and more) who share an interest in making Toronto more responsive, prosperous, sustainable, and equitable through design, tech, and data. Come and be part of it!
