Monthly Community Call
Join us for the April Community Call!
Did you know that we used to do monthly Community Calls, and recently, we thought to ourselves, "Why did we ever stop doing those?" So, we're starting them back up! If you haven't been a part of one of these before, they are simply hour-long calls over the lunch hour where our extended Neighboring Movement community can gather, get to know one another, and share stories about their neighboring experiments and the impact of neighboring on their lives.

What is ABCD?
ABCD stands for Asset Based Community Development. This is a philosophy of creating community by focusing on strengths. Here are some of the values that we hold as an organization that uses ABCD.
Start with gifts, and build relationships for mutual support. Value small, grassroots, and community-driven efforts. Nurture community member-led action and work towards equity and justice. Believe in possibility, lead by stepping back, and include everyone.
