Urban Alliance works to create opportunities for people to achieve lasting change in their lives through the collaborative work of Christian churches and other partner organizations in our local community.

Addressing the Issues that Matter to our Community

Basic Needs

Food Insecurity

Hartford has been called a food desert. Urban Alliance is working with Network Partners to help change that - providing training and resources, launching the Farmers Market Access Program, coordinating pop-up Food Distributions and pioneering ways to get nutritious food into the hands of those who need it most.

Children & Youth

Education Inequity

Urban Alliance is working to help coordinate needs and organizations that are able to meet them, freeing teachers and school administration to focus on the work of educating the next generation.

Returning Citizens

Second Chance Programs

Many returning citizens struggle to find employment, make ends meet and build a healthy network of support. Successful reentry relies on a variety of people and resources. Urban Alliance is working with churches and ministries to develop programs and provide resources to returning citizens.

Mental & Emotional Health

Mental Health Support

Urban Alliance offers training, community and support to professional counselors, community organizations, and church programs that provide mental health support.
