This gathering is a chance for neighbors, volunteers, donors, and community leaders to come together around one shared goal: making sure everyone in our community has what they need to thrive.

We’ll spend some time reflecting on where we are today, the challenges many of our neighbors are facing, and the ways ICA is working to meet those needs. Most importantly, we’ll talk about how—together—we can keep building a stronger, healthier community. Your presence and perspective mean so much, and we’d be grateful to have you with us.

What to expect:

• A look at ICA’s mission, vision, and goals

• Honest conversation about the needs in our community

• How ICA is responding to those needs

• Opportunities for you to be part of the solution
