Promise Neighborhood Forums

Last night 40 persons participated in a Promise Forum, discussing conditions that influence the growth and development of children and youth in the Promise Neighborhood area. They articulated a vision for providing children and youth safe, healthy and happy neighborhood conditions to support their development from "Cradle to Career".
Another Promise Forum is scheduled for tomorrow, Saturday, July 23 from 8:30 AM to 12 Noon at the Bishop Leodies & Goldie Warren Community Development Center at 1200 Bishop Warren Drive (formerly 1200 Lewis Street). Please plan to attend and participate.
Be a part of Making the Promise to neighborhood children and youth to ensure happy, healthy and productive childhoods and greater academic success from pre-school through college and career training. This effort aims to work with all children in the community and will include schools, after-school programs, community-based services to families and improved neighborhood conditions such as health and safety.
