Where did our programs go?

Even as we struggle to fund the ongoing mission of the Interfaith Council, we feel it imperative to support the continuing mission of the vital agencies we have launched into the community.  Please do not forget these wonderful Council programs now that they have found  new homes:

 Friendship House a West Side apartment building for low-income renters was sold  for $2.3 million to a partnership formed by Mutual Housing Association of Southwestern Connecticut and New Neighborhoods Inc.
