Mission: Codington Connects strengthens community resilience through collaboration, support, and accessible resources.

The Resilient Community initiative is focused on
making the community a safe and healthy place
for all of our residents. Through coordinated
efforts, the community has come together in an
impressive way to address some of the most
challenging issues facing our community. These
efforts improve our economic outlook as well as
make Watertown a better place to live.
In 2022, social service providers across the community came together to participate in a strategic planning process which has guided the focus of addressing needs.
A
Codington Connects Needs Assessment was completed in 2024 to more accurately identify what community members need. View the
