We’ve been hard at work building One City, a simple idea with a big impact. It means working together: fewer silos; stronger teamwork; and a shared focus on serving our employees, residents, and community. Curious about the "what" and the "why" behind the organizational realignment?
Acquired by the city in 1990, the Hemenway Community Center was originally used as an externally-operated recreation site, then as a Wilmington Police substation before falling under the purview of the Parks and Recreation department.
The building is managed by Voyage, a nonprofit with a mission to connect youth with pathways to success. The organization's goal is to interrupt the cycle of multi-generational poverty in the community by increasing self-sufficiency, social cohesion, collective efficacy, and economic stability.
The community center features multipurpose rooms, a computer room, and a kitchen.
