Nurturing a culture of joy, relationship, and abundance.
The Neighboring Movement is dedicated to cultivating a vibrant culture of abundance. We recognize and celebrate the unique skills and gifts within our communities, helping everyone connect and uplift one another. It’s a simple yet powerful idea, and we invite you to join us in making meaningful relationships that spark joy!

“The connections among local people are what awaken the power of families and neighborhoods to weave the social fabric of an abundant community.”
Empowering people to create change by focusing on what’s strong, not what’s wrong.
We teach and practice asset-based community development (ABCD) to help our community and other communities build upon their existing strengths to address the challenges they experience. Our programs use the ABCD framework to enrich the community by fostering connections and building trust. Everyone has unique talents; when we share them, we create stronger, more fulfilling neighborhoods. Our programs offer practical, easy-to-implement actions that can positively impact neighborhoods by reducing crime, enhancing education, and bringing people closer together.
Let’s create a vibrant and supportive community for everyone!
Building a thriving community in SoCe.
Our founding neighborhood is the South Central neighborhood in Wichita, KS, commonly referred to as SoCe (SO-SEE). The SoCe neighborhood boundaries are from Kellogg south to Pawnee and Washington west to the Arkansas River. Our offices are located in the heart of SoCe where we are working to rejuvenate the neighborhood through various initiatives, including property development and neighborhood support.
