Community Advocacy in Bridgeport Public Housing

The United Way of Coastal Fairfield County in conjunction with Bridgeport Prospers and the PT Partners program offer transformational community empowerment and advocacy services programs in some of the largest housing communities in the state. 4-CT is supporting the expansion of the organization's flagship organizing model at the largest housing development in the city of Bridgeport to two additional facilities. This grant will provide PPE for residents, eviction protection for families, internet connectivity to households, assist with the transition to online education, and identify and train twenty resident leaders.

This grant is made pursuant to 4-CT’s commitment to funding projects that address systemic injustices and promote greater racial equality.
