Comment by Heidi Simpson on December 2, 2011 at 8:16am: Hi Earl, If you are interested the DC Edgewood/Brookland HP can still use any and all volunteers wishing to help. We had a very sucessful event last year.

The Edgewood/Brookland Family Support Collaborative provides family preservation and supportive services to Ward 6 families as part of the Healthy Families Thriving Community Collaboratives.

Driving / parking was not a problem.

Check us out last year's event:

Comment by Willis Bretz on November 29, 2011 at 8:57am: Hey everyone. It looks like I'm not going to be able to make it out this year. I was, however, able to participate in one small way and wanted to share it with all of you. Best of luck on the 10th!
