ABOUT THIS SECTION

Neighboring calls for empowering communities, engaging residents, and building the capacity of residents to find creative local solutions themselves.

This is your Action Kit. If your goal is to engage volunteers in tough communities, to strengthen families, or to support programs that empower communities, the resources you'll find here can help.

In this section of the Web site, you will find useful ideas, templates, how-to guides, and downloadable items to help develop new or to enhance ongoing neighboring initiatives that strengthen families and build connected communities. Customize these resources to suit your needs. As your needs grow and change, you will find tools here to help.
