What Took Place?
In early August, individuals representing The Valley Hospital began knocking on the doors of Ridgewood residents to talk to them about The Valley Renewal. Each of the 8,430 homes in the Village was visited over several weeks. In total, 3,468 different household conversations were held – that’s 41% of the homes in Ridgewood.

We were incredibly gratified by the willingness of Village residents to talk with the outreach staff. It confirmed that Valley is very important to the community, and that residents are willing, under convenient circumstances, to share their thoughts and perceptions.
