Longfellow Committees & Working Groups
Do you have a community concern, idea for a new project or just want to hang out with neighbors and work to improve Greater Longfellow? Join or start a working group and bring your ideas to fruition with the help of LCC! Or join a committee to keep updated on development and environmental issues. Membership is informal, so you can attend meetings every month, or just the ones you’re interested in.
