HALL believes it is important for all citizens to share their gifts and potential within their community to enhance lifelong learning and support the healthy development and care of children. Our volunteers and staff share their time and knowledge to offer many of our programs and activities. Creating new or supporting existing quality learning activities within our community and surrounding areas are just some of the ways in which HALL is contributing to Hampton being a great place to raise a family.
