About the 2016 Summit

The fifth annual summit brought together community leaders, friends, neighbors, and students to explore, foster, strengthen, and celebrate Needham’s diversity – of socioeconomic status, race, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, religion, ethnic identity, and age. The annual occasion aims to create a network of people committed to creating an equitable and welcoming town and encouraging Needham residents to think in new ways about our evolving community.
