Oakhurst residents and neighbors throughout Decatur will discuss community needs and develop volunteer action plans at a forum titled “Oakhurst Community Forum: Let’s Get Rolling.”
Breakout sessions feature four topic areas: aging-in-place, youth services, immigrant family support, and neighborhood development.
The forum will be held on Sat., Feb. 26, from 10:00 a.m. to noon, at Oakhurst Presbyterian Church (118 Second Avenue in Decatur). Free childcare will be available.

The event builds on the success of “Where Are We Now? Let’s Talk about Oakhurst,” a fall 2010 forum that sparked dialogue about neighborhood identity, history, and the value of building relationships that span generations and cultures.
On Saturday, as we turn from discussion to action, attendees will have an opportunity to sign up for volunteer teams at the meeting’s end.
