The Connection Offers A Welcoming Place for Everyone!

Since 1919, The Connection has been serving individuals in Summit and the surrounding areas. This women-led, non-profit organization has worked tirelessly for nearly 100 years to enhance lives and foster community, and in turn, to develop the respect that eliminates prejudice. The Connections assists community members of diverse economic circumstances, race, gender, age, sexual orientation, culture, and physical and mental abilities to acquire skills and build self-esteem. Their commitment to community service programs is unparalleled—their particular focus on serving newcomers to our country, physical rehabilitative patients, and children and adults with special needs allows them to meet the needs of individuals and families that are not reached by other agencies. The Connection is what its name implies – an community service organization that fosters connections between any and all who seek it!
