As a neighborhood, we will explore real data about our community. Does the data fit what we're living? What's missing? What would we build if we had the power? Let’s get curious together. We'll learn from each other and honor our common experiences as neighbors.

What happens with what you share: GRSEPN brings the findings back to us. Our priorities shape GRSEPN's action plan for the next five years. Help design what comes next for our neighborhoods!

Childcare provided (please register at least 2 days in advance if you need childcare or interpretation services).

If you're looking for diapers, we have diapers. But Diaper Day was never meant to be just a giveaway. It's an opportunity to connect with resources.

To meet people who care.
To learn about programs designed specifically for young moms.
To discover a community that wants to walk alongside you long after the diapers are gone.

Because your story matters. And your future matters.

Thank you to , , , RelianceOne and the incredible One of Fifteen community for helping make this event possible.
