The Shared Goal of the Newport Working Cities Collaborative is to connect Newporters with each other and services across the City to lift families out of poverty.

The Newport Working Cities Collaborative is a partnership of over 60 residents, nonprofits, City Government, Newport Pubic Schools, and private sector representatives creating systems change to help families lift themselves out of poverty and strengthen the North End Community.
