In the lead-up to our “An Evening with Matthew Desmond” event, Tucson Agenda co-founder Caitlin Schmidt is teaming up with the Tucson Tome Gnome and the Community Foundation for Southern Arizona to host a solutions-focused community book club, featuring Pulitzer Prize-winning, best-selling author, Matthew Desmond.

This book club aims to bring together interested community members from all walks of life to bond over a shared desire to make our community better for all – and be inspired by a shared reading experience! We can’t promise we can solve all the world’s (or Southern Arizona’s) problems, but we can connect, learn from each other, and build momentum toward positive change.
