The expo was comprised of community organizations, city agencies and other groups who brought various workshops and activities to Brooklyn Borough Hall.

Deputy Borough President Kimberly Counsel said the feedback has been positive.
"You can tell from the noise in the background people are really engaged and were really happy to be able to provide this type of space,” she said.
