Outreach & Awareness
Building Connections
It takes an entire community to make change happen. By increasing community conversations on topics like equity, healthy relationships, social justice, personal power, healthy masculinity and affirming space, we can set the groundwork for building connections, individual and community transformations, and the skills to move from bystander to change agent.
If you would like to bring a HopeWorks representative to your community fair or event, or would like to discuss how your organization can work in partnership with HopeWorks, please contact the Community Engagement Department at outreach@hopeworksofhc.org or call (410) 997-0304.
