Stafford Forward

Stafford Township is always moving forward—planning, partnering, and investing in projects that help our community thrive today while preparing for tomorrow. Stafford Forward is a home for the Township’s innovative work across multiple focus areas, including travel and safety, resiliency, health and wellness, economic development and more.

Many of Stafford’s initiatives are made possible through strong partnerships with universities, nonprofit organizations, county and state agencies, and other government entities. These collaborations help us bring new ideas to the table, secure grant funding, and implement programs and improvements that strengthen the community—whether that means protecting neighborhoods from flooding, expanding wellness programming, improving public information, or connecting residents and businesses with economic opportunities.

This page is designed as a starting point. Explore the sections on the bar to the left or below to learn more, find resources, and stay up to date on what Stafford is working on.
