Your first visit

Feeling unsure the first time is normal. Most groups are glad when someone new walks in.

First step: Come to the second Wednesday community meeting at 6:30 pm at the Francisville Recreation Center, 1737 Francis St. The group also offers a virtual option. To ask about events or concerns, email info@ufcaphilly.org..

You can just show up.

What to expect

Meetings run from 6:30 to 8 pm, once a month. The group says food and drinks are provided. No agenda was posted on the page we read, and no dues or fees are listed for attending.

Tips for your first visit

  • Read the past meeting minutes posted on the website to see what gets discussed.
  • The Greening Committee meets on Tuesdays at 7 pm at Greenspace in Francisville, if you want hands-on work.
  • The group is recruiting volunteers for president, vice president and treasurer, and interested neighbors can say so through a linked folder.

Newcomer welcome

Fine for newcomers, but you may need to speak up (3 out of 5). Why we say this: The meetings page invites everyone to attend, including residents and business owners, and offers a virtual option. It does not use newcomer language or describe a membership path, so it is rated 3..
