"When we went to the art museums, I can actually see trees that I would see in Jamaica.”

HHP is a place-based education initiative of CT State Capital that incorporates our community into the curriculum. Museums, historical societies, parks, community centers, care facilities, local businesses, government agencies, and other valuable local resources become an extension of our classroom. 

HHP is a program of CT State Capital and has been made possible by support of the National Endowment for the Humanities.
