We’ve all seen the stories about the high cost of housing in Massachusetts and the outmigration of young talent currently occurring. What does this mean for our communities and businesses? What can be done about it? We’ve gathered a group of experts to help us understand what’s driving these changes and what we can do in our region to remain competitive going forward.
Following the program, we will gather for cocktails and hors d’oeuvres and an opportunity to meet the speakers, ask questions and network with others.
Panelists:
Doug Howgate, President, Mass. Taxpayers Foundation
Rachel Heller, CEO Community Housing and Planning Association (CHAPA)
Jill Rossetti, Superintendent of Blue Hills Regional Technical School
Greg Bunn, Executive Director of the Metro South/West Workforce Investment Board
Paige Duncan, Foxborough Town Manager
Speaking topics include:
- Outmigration
- Local impact of new migrants
