Previous FOCUS Forum Videos

FOCUS Greater Syracuse boasts over 20 years of free monthly public forums, most of which were held in person at the City Hall Atrium. The COVID-19 pandemic has pushed our monthly forums to an online format – however, this gave FOCUS the capabilities to not only reach a broader audience, but to also record and archive the forums we have brought to the Greater Syracuse community.

Listed below are all the forums FOCUS has recorded since our move online (but certainly not all of our forums in history!). We hope our recorded forums provide community members the ability to obtain the vital information from these forums provided the community, even if they could not attend! Please view them at your leisure.
