First District Hosts First Faith-Based Roundtable

The First District hosted its first community roundtable with faith-based leaders.

Our First District office was pleased to host our first Faith-Based Roundtable Meeting on Thursday.

"These roundtables are extremely insightful for identifying specific issues and concerns in the community," said First District Director Kimberly Mesen. "It also helps us build a better relationship with our faith-based leaders & constituents, and provides an opportunity for us to share County updates and valuable resources."

"We had a great turnout and many constructive conversations," she added.
