Project snapshot
Connectemonos? project is essential as it focuses on content creation, campaign building, research, gardening, and filming. We help students enhance their writing, research, and outreach skills, and understand collaboration with CBOs, government agencies, and officials. Our trained local instructors and volunteers guide participants from brown and black communities in Manhattan and the Bronx in developing these skills. Through our programs, participants become change agents for their communities. We engage members through volunteer-driven campaigns in three open spaces during It’s My Park Day events. Our collaborative efforts with local schools and organizations support various programs.
