My name is Ellen Cupo, and I represent Ward 8 on the New Haven Board of Alders.

For 2022-2023, I will serve as Vice Chair for the Board of Alders' Legislation Committee, and I will serve on the Community Development Committee. I also sit on the Development Commission, and I am a proud member of the Project M.O.R.E. Reentry Welcome Center Advisory Board. My husband Ian and I have a 2-year-old named Hunter, and a dog named Pig. I'm excited to announce that I'm pregnant and in late-March, early-April we'll welcome a little sister for Hunter! I use she/her pronouns.

Feel free to email me at ward8@newhavenct.gov or cupofor8@gmail.com. You can also reach me by phone at (203) 584-7071.
