• Come together 3-4 times a year to exchange ideas and strategies for promoting access to opportunity in Connecticut.

We encourage all types of agencies to consider working with Open Communities Alliance.  Opportunity disparity affects a broad range of issues from health disparities, educational access, homelessness, criminal justice and more.  In particular, groups focusing on bringing resources to struggling communities might consider joining us to counter the policies exacerbate the problems they are trying to address.

Please tell us a bit more about your organization and we will follow up with a phone call to explore a partnership.
