Forum in Ansonia works to bridge gap between community, police

Maude Hinson, wife of the Rev. John Hinson, pastor, First Baptist Church in Ansonia, speaks Monday night at a community forum in the church sanctuary. 

Maude Hinson organized a Law Enforcement Appreciation Day earlier this year and raised $8,300 to purchase safety equipment for Ansonia Police Officers. The fund-raising continues with a goal of $51,000, she said.

Please stay tuned for more information about the meeting in the next issue of The Valley Voice newsletter.
