Online Map Viewer. Partners include The Childrens Museum of NH and Goodwin Community Health, and the project is funded by the NH Children’s Health Foundation.

SRPC will be holding its event kickoff on Tuesday, Jul. 20 at the Rotary Arts Pavilion in Dover at around 11AM, or just after the summer kids concert series concludes!

CHAT Project Forum 4.22.21

Join Strafford Regional Planning Commission (SRPC) as they partner with the towns of Lee, Madbury and Rollinsford on a community Zoom forum to gather feedback on their Communities for Healthy Aging Transitions (CHAT) project. This forum was previously planned for Mar. 30 but has been rescheduled. This project seeks to identify strengths towards and opportunities for each regional community providing an inclusive, welcoming, supportive, and healthy environment for people of all ages.

To accomplish this SRPC wants to hear from the people that know Rollinsford best, those who live and work in town. Using virtual public engagement tools like Zoom’s breakout rooms and live interactive polling, SRPC will lead a discussion to best understand what residents value about their communities, and opportunities for making it even better.

Please join this interactive opportunity for providing input which will now be held on Thursday, Apr. 22 from 6:30-8:00 p.m. The best part – you don’t even have to leave your house-and you can still participate and share your thoughts!

SRPC looks forward to CHATting with you! Register online at https://tinyurl.com/kuxp8pj8, and contact communications and outreach planner Shayna Sylvia at [email protected] with any questions.

Can’t wait to share your thoughts or won’t be able to make the session, take the online CHAT survey.
