Rock the Block 3!
Rock the Block is a perfect example of community-rooted action that reflects Change Lab values of belonging, mutual aid, and public celebration of civic life. This event helps fulfill goals across several Change Lab pathways—such as Attend a Civic Meetup, Volunteer with a Cause, and Share Your Story—and demonstrates how faith-based institutions can anchor civic connection and neighborhood resilience.
The Eviction Lab
The Eviction Lab, founded by sociologist Matthew Desmond, is the first nationwide database of eviction records in the United States. But more than just a research initiative, it’s a powerful act of truth-telling — putting numbers to the reality that millions of Americans are pushed from their homes each year, often invisibly.
We’re a brand new organization focused on connection, civic participation, and shared understanding. This is our temporary website while we build out a full online platform to better serve our community. In the meantime, we’d love your support and input as we grow. You can support our work or schedule a conversation to learn more and get involved.
