“One of my greatest responsibilities as a Member of Congress is to aid my constituents as they navigate the sometimes-cumbersome network of services,” said Watson Coleman. “Unfortunately, many constituents don’t know that these services are available to them or cannot make their way to our district office. So I’ve worked with our county and local officials to bring as many resources together in one place to create a one-stop-shop for anyone seeking help.”
The fair featured staff from the US Representatives as well as State Sen. Shirley Turner, Assembly members Verlina Reynolds-Jackson and Anthony Verrelli and Mercer County officials including County Executive Brian Hughes and County Clerk Paula Sollami Covello.
