Join the Conversation with one of GCDD’s Real Communities Project – The Better Together Milton Initiative.
One of GCDD's Real Communities project, the Better Together Milton Initiative, has been hosting neighborhood meet ups known as Milton Living Room Conversations, where local residents meet in an informal setting in the community to get to know each other and create a more welcoming environment.
The next Living Room Conversation will take place in Bethwell, GA on Monday, July 23 from 6 to 7 PM at the Bethwell Community Center, 2695 Hopewell Road.
This conversation will give residents a chance to know their police officers and offer a glimpse inside the vital community role they serve.
"All Milton residents should know their police officers, and we're here to facilitate those friendships," said Amanda Quintana, grant coordinator for the Better Together: Real Communities - Milton Mini-Grants Initiative. "As always, this will be a pressure-free environment to meet your neighbors and discuss your community."
Quintana said dessert and drinks will be provided.
Better Together is funded in large part through the Georgia Council on Developmental Disabilities' (GCDD) Real Communities Initiative: Milton. The grants support neighborhood improvements, promote neighborhood connections and fund projects that bring community members together.
Currently, GCDD provides Milton a little less than $20,000 in federal funds and the city matches just less than $5,000.
