Looking Ahead...
At our banquet we also shared the Greater New Haven Help Alliance's 2012 vision and goals to expand our programming to further impact the lives of the youth in the Greater New Haven area.
We have been assessing the needs of our youth, looking at what programs have been cut due to the recession and we are working hard to help to fill the gap, to make a difference.
In 2012, we will be bringing the arts to the community with various children's programming at the branch libraries as well as various agencies in the Greater New Haven area.
In addition to arts programming we are working on implementing a high school readiness program and also along with a local agency to develop a program to deal with the problems of obesity in children.
We believe that we have to work to help our children become well rounded adults. Our arts, health, and educational programs will all work together to help our children have an easier time achieving their dreams.
Executive Director Richard Everett and our Program Director Genevive "Gigi" Walker also shared our past successes and our dreams for the future.
In closing the night was a tremendous success, the food was excellent and a good time was had by all who attended. We hope you can join us next year.
