The Connecticut chapter of the Faces of Homelessness Speakers' Bureau would not exist without the support of our generous partners:
The Hartford, CT, Faces of Homelessness Speakers’ Bureau chapter operates out of Hands On Hartford, a non-profit organization and Hands On Network affiliate that provides food, supportive housing, educational support services, and community engagement opportunities to the Greater Hartford community.
