These monthly meetings are a great way to network and collaborate with the dozens of agencies and nonprofits that provide social services to Gila County residents.

Towards the end of the May 11th meeting, there will be a “share time” for attendees to provide information on upcoming events, announcements, messages, and other community issues.

This “one-stop meeting” repeats at 11:30 am on the second Thursday of every month, with informal lunchtime chit-chat.

The next regular meeting is Thursday, June 8th.
