Flint's Future Now is an action group that works for a positive future in Flint. We want a diverse economy, safe neighborhoods, and opportunities for our children. We advocate for forward-looking public policies and hold our elected officials responsible for making good decisions on issues affecting our future. We want to hear what you think needs to be done. Send us your ideas through the Suggestion Box.
Flint's Future? That is the big question facing our community. Take a look at our research report, Flint's Future? A Forgotten Success or 21st Century Triumph, or the corresponding Policy Brief. In order to have an understanding of our future, it is important to examine the past and be honest about the present.
We are being held back by the old battles and worn out ways of thinking. Money is not everything, but workers here in Flint need jobs. When more people in Flint spend their hard-earned dollars closer to home, then there will be more employment. This is why Flint's Future Now has a campaign to Buy Flint First. Start with a cup of coffee at Good Beans Café right in the heart of the city on North Grand Traverse in Carriage Town.
The present is the first day of the future and the last day of the past. It is time for Flint's Future Now. Sign Up Now and get ready to make a difference.
