We’re Focused on What Matters Most Right Now in Hartford

At the Junior League of Hartford we live in the moment. To us, that means adjusting our focus according to our community’s most pressing needs. Our work is always evolving, and that keeps us on our toes, striving for progress, and preparing to take on whatever comes next.

We hope to focus our resources on critical needs of women and families in our community. The Junior League of Hartford serves the immediate needs of our community by connecting the community to existing resources and removing barriers to basic human needs to address the impact of a much larger and more complex issue associated with systemic poverty.

Our goal is to help Greater Hartford women develop civic leadership skills through the work they do, then put those talents to work in the communities that need it. Our current focus of addressing basic human needs for those in poverty gives women opportunities to grow as civic leaders, while positively impacting the communities where they live and work.

We’re Creating Fulfilling Leadership Opportunities Throughout Hartford

The Junior League of Hartford offers so much more than local volunteering opportunities! Our League of leaders creates real change by advancing social activism-focused projects that directly benefit the communities of Hartford. By giving women the tools to lead, educating them about their communities’ needs, and helping them put their unique brand of creativity and skill to work, the Junior League of Hartford is making a big impact on the Greater Hartford region

We’re Transforming Hartford Communities By Challenging the Status Quo

No matter what we’re currently focusing on, the Junior League of Hartford’s work centers around improving our local communities through effective action and leadership. We have identified addressing the impact of systemic poverty on women and families as the most pressing issue in our community right now, and we are helping local women take action to resolve it. Each year, we partner with and support organizations in the Hartford area that provide critical resources for women and families in our community. We believe that these impactful actions have the power to bring us closer to our goals.
