What is a Community Representative?
In order to fully represent the entire state of Connecticut and to ensure every community has a voice in Slow Food Shoreline’s activities, we rely on Community Representatives (CRs).

CRs have an open invitation to the Slow Food Shoreline Board Meetings, and act as advisory board members. Two specific board meetings each year focus on how we connect Slow Food Shoreline’s mission and goals to individual communities, and CR’s play an important role. CRs also interact with leadership on an ad hoc basis the entire year, giving advice and assisting with local activities.
