Change is getting involved

To improve the health and well-being of our city and its residents, we need to start with an investment from the community itself. As dedicated residents of Niagara Falls, we aim to lead by example and encourage others to join us as "Change Agents." Please take a moment to explore our work groups and programs, and check back often for updates on our community calendar!
