Dixwell Newhallville Mental Health under the direction of Robert Page.
Newhallville Teen Center,
OIC across from Community Baptist Church which is now a parking lot.

Youth and teen activities which took place across from the Knickerbockers-Freeman Holloway comes to mind.
Names such as Bernie Silva and Stan Welch cross my consciousness.
So many well intentioned manifestations- It is my proactive prayer that this new opportunity bears sustained fruit.
