12:00 - 1:00  PM - Lunch and Program

Wednesday, September 16th at 11:30 @ New Bern Golf & Country Club

Join us again at our new beautiful lunch venue to hear from Mickey Miller & Tharesa Lee. In 2013, City of New Bern and the Housing Authority of the City of New Bern were chosen as one of only nine cities in the country to receive a 2013 HUD Choice Neighborhoods Initiative planning grant. Mickey Miller and Tharesa Lee from The Choice Neighborhoods Initiative will explain how this program is designed to help transform struggling neighborhoods of concentrated poverty into sustainable, mixed-income communities with quality, affordable housing, safer streets, good schools, and improved access to jobs. The program is focused on three core goals: Housing, People and Neighborhood. It not only addresses the public housing issue, but education, public safety, health, and employment. The Choice Neighborhoods grant will bring together New Bern’s residents, service organizations, businesses, and non-profits to develop a comprehensive approach to transform the grant area and improve the lives of its residents.
