Gather Community Space

For the fifth consecutive year, NEPA is recognized as one of the top locations in the country for economic development projects! We are so grateful to be a small part of what makes this region a great place to work, live, and be in community with each other. Thanks DiscoverNEPA for spotlighting this recognition! #NEPA #EconomicDevelopment #community #thirdspaces

We’re quite thankful for the recognition of our efforts to build welcoming and meaningful third space in downtown Wilkes-Barre, and we hope to see you at one of our programs! Check out and support all the local nonprofits that have been profiled by The Times Leader and The Luzerne Foundation.

What's your case? What do you provide to your community, to your neighbors? For us, our name says it all. We are a space where the community can gather. We foster community, and we provide meaningful programming. As this piece in The DO, the online magazine of the American Osteopathic Association, describes: "the decline in third spaces exacts a heavy toll on the overall well-being of communities, fostering environments where social inequalities thrive and collective resilience wanes...when these spaces vanish, the social fabric frays, leaving communities fragmented." The public health implications are stark, and that health care burden ripples across neighborhoods with real economic and social consequences. We are looking to do something about that. Every connection made, every program offered, and every plan begun is about hope, is about belief in our wonderful community. Join us in this effort to build Gather as we approach 2025 with an inaugural Executive Director (search is underway!), a renewed vision, and a deep commitment to our neighbors. #thirdspaces #communitybuilding #NEPA #WilkesBarre #hiring #community
