About

Dear New Haven Resident:

John DeStefano, Jr., MayorNew Haven works as a community of caring people because so many New Haven citizens act to involve themselves in City Government. The City of New Haven has 45 different Boards and Commissions, and over 300 New Haven citizens from all neighborhoods and all walks of life volunteer countless hours to serve the city. These posts range from such highly visible assignments as the Board of Education, the Housing Authority of New Haven, and the Police Board to many less visible, but equally vital posts such as the Commission on Disabilities, and the Historic District Commission.

Please take time to read about the various Boards and Commissions. The current membership of each is also listed, along with expiration dates. We are always looking for people to serve in one of these posts. There is no pay, but the rewards are great!

You can download and print an application and then mail it to our office, or simply call Pattie Lawlor at 946-7802 to discuss this more fully. You can either express your interest in one or more specific appointments, or let us propose an appropriate one after reading your application form.


Very truly yours,
Mayors Signature
John DeStefano, Jr., Mayor
