Enhancing the Community, for the Community.

The New Haven Parking Authority prioritizes hiring local contractors to strengthen the community’s economy, create jobs, and foster sustainable growth. We recognize that supporting businesses in the region keeps tax dollars circulating locally, benefiting residents and infrastructure. Additionally, NHPA emphasizes diversity and inclusion by actively seeking female-owned, veteran-owned, and minority-owned businesses. These initiatives promote economic equity, providing opportunities for historically underrepresented groups while encouraging innovation and competitiveness.

Our supplier diversity programs set contract participation goals to ensure fair access to government procurement opportunities. By prioritizing local and diverse contractors, NHPA enhances economic resilience, drives social progress, and reflects the diversity of our community. These efforts create a more inclusive business environment while ensuring public projects reflect the values and needs of the people they serve.
