Let’s change how we think about our communities.
Strong communities start with connection.
At The Neighboring Movement, we believe every person has gifts to share, every neighborhood has strengths to build upon, and meaningful change begins with relationships.
Through our programs, we equip individuals, congregations, and community leaders to discover what's strong in their communities, build meaningful relationships, and create lasting change together.
There's a place for everyone in the neighboring movement.
Neighborhood Connectors
Neighborhood Connectors Network
Neighborhood Connectors is a 12-week, paid program that equips everyday people to strengthen their communities through Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD).
Through interactive workshops, online learning, and real-world experiences, participants discover the gifts, talents, and resources already present in their neighborhoods and learn how to bring people together around what matters most.
With a commitment of approximately five hours per week, you can become a catalyst for connection and positive change right where you live.
Congregations as Connectors
We believe congregations have an important role to play in strengthening the connections that help communities thrive.
Congregations as Connectors is an emerging initiative designed to help faith communities discover the strengths of their neighborhoods, build authentic relationships, and explore new ways to engage with the people and places around them.
Rooted in Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD), this work will focus on helping congregations recognize the gifts already present in their communities and become partners in creating a greater sense of connection and belonging.
Building stronger connections between congregations and communities.
