Bronx Community Board 11 1741 Colden Avenue, The Bronx, New York 10462,

"Very hardworking team at Bronx Community Board 11. I appreciate the work they do to ensure their committee meetings and full board meetings are available online and on Youtube. As a father of 3 who works full-time, this is a game changer for me that allows me to engage in the civic process. +The virtual option makes things so much more inclusive for those who might not be able to attend in person for health reasons. Thank you CB11!"

"We are new restaurant owner and were having challenges with a liquor license renewal. We went to the office and were fortunate enough to meet Jeremy, who was a HUGE help. He researched what was needed, and he jumped through hoops to get it to us so we could submit in time. Without Jeremy’s help, we would have had to close our doors for 2 weeks and would have had to tell our employees during the holidays that they wouldn’t be working. We were able to avoid that because of Jeremy’s help. It is rare to see this type of service and extra effort, but we definitely saw it and it made a huge difference for us! Thanks to the Bronx Community Board 11, and especially to Jeremy!!!"

"My experience working with the community associates of The Bronx Community Board 11 to resolve a situation has been both helpful and therapeutic. Jeremy was the initial community associate who I met. After relating my situation, he directed me to the city agencies who could provide assistance. Chris was the next associate I met in person. He provided a listening ear and offered a stop gap to my situation, which I made use of. Harriet was the final associate I met in person who also provided a listening ear. All three provided support in various ways. While the situation that drove me to them is not a good one, seeking their aid has given me an opportunity to discover these active, informative, and responsive people."

"Community Board 11 has a very hard working staff who endeavor to aid the residents of the area in many different ways. The Board is active on social media and has a very good, informative website. The employees and volunteers truly care about the community and actively work with residents, local police precinct, local elected officials, employers, etc to make the area the best it can be for all."

"CB11 board members, staff and neighborhood residents and business owners have been solid support for my family and I. We are a medically ill family. We did not begin this way but became one over the years. When Hillary Clinton said "it takes a village to raise a child," those words stayed with me throughout my college years and years as a social worker. It is those words that became core for my family, and CB11 became our village. I cannot express enough the heartfelt gratitude I have for CB11."
