Neighborhood Council
In neighborhoods where the Housing Partnership has community-building activities, we invite residents to participate in a Neighborhood Council. Working with council members, we sponsor community events; offer leadership workshops and training opportunities, such as the NeighborWorks® Community Training Institute; help with improvement projects; and organize efforts that focus on specific issues, such as zoning changes, voting rights and crime.
Currently, we have Neighborhood Councils in the Pine Forest, Pine Forest Heights, 29th and Chase, P.R.I.D.E., Larsen, Magnolia Gardens, Metro Garden, North Riverside and Robinson Addition neighborhoods.
