Introducing Our 8th Cohort of CANimators!
It’s that time of year, and everyone at The Neighboring Movement is stoked about our incoming cohort of the Community Animator Network!
Last week, we gathered together and got to know our Animators before they formally begin the program this week. We had some CAN alumni come and welcome them and participate in the fun!
Everyone had a chance to mingle, and share the best of themselves in our Head, Hands, Heart exercise!
We are especially excited for the broad range of people that makeup this cohort! People who are passionate about putting in the muscle work to help Wichitans meet their basic needs e.g. cold water during scorching temperatures this summer! As well as young professionals and people who are established in their careers and are looking to connect with others making a similar impact on their community.
Meet our Fall 2023 Cohort!

We are so energized by our network of animators! This new cohort will begin their journey to learning how to identify, connect, and mobilize their communities.
