A non-profit educational initiative whose mission is to restore the history and honor the humanity of the enslaved individuals who helped build our communities.
We’re thrilled to announce that the Witness Stones Project has officially joined Historic New England, a renowned institution dedicated to preservation and education. Together, we will continue to work to gain a richer, more inclusive understanding of our shared history.
We are excited to welcome Patricia Wilson Pheanious as our new Executive Director. Pat is a seasoned public servant who has served as a Connecticut state representative and as a Commissioner of the Connecticut Department of Social Services. Welcome, Pat!
After many years of dedicated service, our Co-Founder and Executive Director, Dennis Culliton, has decided to step down from his current role. We are immensely grateful for Dennis’s vision and leadership, which have shaped the organization since its inception.
Our mission is simple yet profound: to bring hidden narratives to light and ensure they are remembered, respected, and honored.
