Deep Roots Drive Newhallville Stakeholders To Advance Neighborhood Equality

This blog post summarizes the historical and current conditions of Newhallville, a neighborhood in New Haven that faces poverty, violence, trauma, food deserts, and a "very low" child opportunity ranking. Data Haven references their 2019 report , which found that the average household in Newhallville earned $33,113 annually, compared with $73,781 statewide. In the last few years there have been several iniatives that work to improve the quality of life in Newhallville, including the Beulah Heights Social Integration Program , Community Placemaking and Engagement Network (CPEN) , ConnCAT , and the Hispanic Health Council . Although DataHaven notes some successes of these programs, they acknowledge the immense work that still needs to be done and mention that the neighborhood has changed, becoming demographically very mixed.
