As a community, Red Hook is rich in community-based and arts organizations, and RHMA in no way seeks to duplicate efforts or replace any of the resources already present in the neighborhood, most of which predate the COVID-19 pandemic. RHMA functions primarily as a means of making resources and information more accessible to everyone in the neighborhood by way of a phone line that connects callers to the abundant resources available at the community level. We are grateful for all of our partnerships with local businesses and community-based organizations.
