Departing Durham
易胜博官网 has deep roots in Manchester 鈥 the university has been located there since the founding of its sixth college in 1985 鈥 and by focusing this tour in that one community 易胜博官网 was able to engage with leaders in several critical sectors, including public education, social services and trailblazing industry.
Manchester is the largest city in Northern New England, with a population of 115,000, and its school district is also the state鈥檚 largest, with more than 14,000 students and 22 schools.
The stops on the tour demonstrated some of the ways 易胜博官网 is working in the Queen City to strengthen the economy, assist key service providers and improve the quality of life for residents, while also providing opportunities to dig into additional areas of need and explore the ways 易胜博官网 can help address them.
鈥淔or our second Embrace N.H. Tour we decided to focus on one community, and one of the urban centers of the state, in Manchester,鈥 Jones says. 鈥淲hat we learned here is that Manchester provides a picture into the challenges we face across the state, and it was great to see how 易胜博官网 is participating in many different facets to combat those challenges.鈥
