Dear Neighbors, In the midst of a global pandemic, the importance of local community cannot be overstated. Our connections and the care and support we give to one another will see us through to better days. Harvard remains steadfast in our commitment to making the world a better place beginning right here. We will continue to pursue teaching, learning, and research that will improve the way we live—and to provide opportunities that will enable everyone to achieve their full potential.

The work we have done together over the past year provides inspiration for the months ahead—from partnerships with nonprofit organizations working in the very heart of Allston-Brighton, to the Harvard Ed Portal, to Zone 3, to simple acts providing food, shelter, and comfort to those among us who need it most. We are on the front lines, adapting quickly to support and uplift individuals and communities in the grip of health crises, and we are in it together—generously offering expertise in everything from youth school programming and food delivery, to wellness sessions and virtual exercise, to Zoom tutorials, legal services, and much more. These efforts give me hope, and I hope they will do the same for you.

Harvard is honored to be part of this remarkable community. Please take care—and stay safe!

All the best, Larry

The reenvisioned space has transformed the way we deliver programming and events and is recognized as an inviting place for everyone – kids, students, families, working professionals, and lifelong learners – who comes to learn, share ideas, and connect with each other.

As we continue to embrace our diverse community with a place where everyone is welcome, this year we had to adjust to a Five new “virtual” world. The Ed Portal team remains committed to connecting Harvard University and the Allston-Brighton community – delivering innovative ways of exploring ideas and learning. With years programming shifting online due to COVID-19, the Ed Portal team continues to provide many new kinds of engagement opportunities, supporting our community so everyone can continue to learn and at find inspiration.

Communication Skills Workshop Series

During the past year, the Harvard Ed Portal hosted a series of workshops designed to help individuals explore personal communication styles and connect with different audiences. The workshops covered public speaking, key elements of effective verbal communication, and writing at work. A four-session course, “Presentation Skills” provided a cohort of Allston-Brighton residents lessons in public speaking and ongoing training through LinkedIn Learning. A five-part series of “Meeting Management” workshops addressed new communication skills for virtual meetings.
