Community Conversations
North Hartford Ascend Monthly
Community Conversations
North Hartford Ascend prioritizes engaging with community members and residents. As part of that approach, Ascend hosts monthly community conversations to partner with community members and residents in the planning and implementation of Ascend activities.
If you are passionate about positive change in the North End and creating opportunities for the neighborhood’s children and families, please join us for a Community Conversation about the North Hartford Ascend Pipeline. Residents, community members, and community representatives are encouraged to provide input based on resident and community priorities to help shape the initiative. Hartford residents are eligible for an incentive for meeting participation.
