Thank you Yale New Haven Hospital for the mobile Mammography Van’s visit to Fellowship Place on July 17. Fifteen women received mammograms. We appreciate Yale’s support which makes it possible for female clients to be served right on the Fellowship Place campus, where they feel safe and comfortable.

Congratulations to Fellowship Place’s Veronica Vidal, Manager of Homeless Services, for receiving the 2025 John P. Jessen Compassionate Community Award, which is given annually to a homeless service provider in the Greater New Haven region, who has demonstrated outstanding acceptance, care, and compassion for the homeless in our community. Under Veronica’s leadership Fellowship’s daytime drop-in program has expanded hours operation to seven days a week and currently serves up to 80 individuals a day.

Fellowship Place was one of several hundred agencies who participated in the non-profit rally at the State Capitol on May 20. Our clients advocated for Fellowship Place and the services which they rely on daily, for basic needs, housing, skill-building, and positive social connections.
Fellowship Place took to the streets on Saturday, May 3 to celebrate Earth Day and to support the Greater Dwight Development Corporation’s annual neighborhood clean-up. The weather was perfect, and Fellowship’s team appreciated the opportunity to be a good neighbor and give back to the community.
