State Rep. Johanny Cepeda-Freytiz will host a town hall Aug. 12 at Centre Park Historic District headquarters.

The Democratic lawmaker said the event will serve as an open forum to discuss the issues that matter most to the residents of the 129th Legislative District and give her an opportunity to update residents about her work in Harrisburg.

The event will begin at 6:30 p.m. at 705 N. Fifth St.

“Hearing from my neighbors helps to inform my policymaking duties in Harrisburg and directly shapes the legislation I introduce,” she said. “I look forward to connecting with our local residents and hearing about the issues that are the most important to them.”

The 129th Legislative District includes northwest Reading, parts of Spring Township, and the boroughs of Sinking Spring, West Reading and Wyomissing.
