Hopeful neighborhoods lead to healthier

We help you create the neighborhood you’ve always wanted.
Have you ever considered what happens when a neighborhood is unhealthy?
Believe it or not, unconnected neighborhoods lead to isolation, unfair systems, and unhealthy environments.
Here’s what we know to be true: there’s not a neighborhood without neighbors and unfortunately, we know our neighbors less today than at any other point in our history. We live in a culture where everyone goes inside, shuts their doors, and keeps to themselves which makes it really awkward to try and engage with your neighbors past a wave and a smile.
The Hopeful Neighborhood Project exists to help you break through that awkwardness so you can create the type of neighborhood where everyone knows each other and works together to actively pursue the common good.
We want to help you build your neighborhood on what is strong, not what is wrong.
We want to do this with you, not for you by using your individual gifts, not outside people. We value your neighborhood’s uniqueness and focus on the possibilities in front of you, not the problems behind you.

3. Build a more Hopeful Neighborhood.
With your new tools, you and your neighbors will have everything you need to create the thriving, hopeful neighborhood you’ve always wanted.
The workshop and lab were helpful in calling out people’s unique gifts and strengths. Our perspective shifted. We realized that we have a lot more to offer to our community than we realized.

Doing the Possibility Statements and Neighborhood Action Plan was a great exercise to get us to a common issue to tackle. Since the group decided as a whole to take on the issue of mental health, they are all passionate about the work and want to be engaged.

A neighborhood without neighbors is just a collection of houses.
We help you turn individual houses into hopeful homes.
