Community Outreach and Education
We will gladly come speak with your congregation, school, or community group. Topics can include the mission and work of Project Hospitality, but can also focus more specifically on issues such as homelessness, hunger, HIV/AIDS, addiction, housing, poverty, volunteering, etc. In addition to staff speakers, Project Hospitality can arrange for peer educators with firsthand experience with these issues, to address your group. Literature, videos, and table displays are available.
For more information or to arrange for a speaker, please call Father Jack Ryan at (718) 448-1544, ext. 115, or e-mail him at jaryan@projecthospitality.org
