MEET YOUR
NEIGHBOR!
TIPS FOR COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT
A“HEALTHY SOCIETY [...]
REQUIRES THE
MOBILIZATION OF SOCIAL
NETWORKS AND SOCIAL
NORMS TO SUPPORT THE
PURSUIT OF SHARED
GOALS AND THE
MEANINGFUL
PARTICIPATION OF
CITIZENS IN BUILDING AND
BEING COMMUNITY.”
 A STUDY CONDUCTED BY THE
SEARCH INSTITUTE IN MINNEAPOLIS
FOUND THAT
NEIGHBORS
MATTER
THIS MEANS THAT MOST
DISENGAGED NEIGHBORHOODS
ARE HOSTILE
YOU SHOULD CARE ABOUT YOUR
NEIGHBORHOOD. HERE'S WHY.
ARE ISOLATING
HAVE A HIGHER
JUVENILE
CRIME RATES
NEIGHBORS
MATTER
BUT CLOSE-KNIT
NEIGHBORHOODS...
ARE SAFE
YOU SHOULD CARE ABOUT YOUR
NEIGHBORHOOD. HERE'S WHY.
ARE SUPPORTIVE
COMMUNITIES
ARE HEALTHY
ENVIRONMENTS
FOR GROWING
FAMILIES
ITS'S SIMPLE:
HERE'S HOW.
YOU NEED TO GET
INVOLVED.
#1
 SAY HELLO!
INTRODUCE YOURSELF.
THE FIRST STEP TO BUILDING A
COMMUNITY IS TO BUILD
RELATIONSHIPS WITH THOSE AROUND
YOU.
PEOPLE CARE ABOUT THOSE THEY
KNOW - SO ASK THAT NEW NEIGHBOR
THEIR NAME! 
ONE CHAT COULD LEAD TO A YEARS-
LONG FRIENDSHIP.
#2
ORGANIZE A
NEIGHBORHOOD
GATHERING. THIS CAN BE AS SMALL AS AN INFORMAL
POTLUCK OR MOVIE NIGHT IN
SOMEONE’S BACKYARD, OR AS LARGE AS
A BLOCK PARTY!
THE KEY IS TO MEET AND BUILD
RELATIONSHIPS WITH THOSE AROUND
YOU.
AFTER ALL, WHO DOESN’T LIKE FOOD?
#3
BUILD
NEIGHBORHOOD
TEAMS.
TEAM SPORTS OR GROUP
PHILANTHROPY BOOSTS MORALE AND
SHIFTS THOSE AROUND YOU FROM
NEIGHBORS TO FRIENDS.
 
SET A WEEKLY PICKUP BASKETBALL
TIME, OR PLAN A GROUP TRIP TO HELP
OUT AT THE LOCAL SOUP KITCHEN!
#4
OFFER A HELPING
HAND.
AT THE END OF THE DAY, A COMMUNITY-
CENTERED NEIGHBORHOOD IS A
SUPPORT SYSTEM.
IF YOU KNOW THAT THE PERSON
ACROSS THE STREET NEEDS SOMETHING
THAT YOU CAN HELP OUT WITH -
WHETHER THAT NEED BE FOOD,
BABYSITTING, OR JUST A KIND WORD -
REACH OUT!
 DAYS, MONTHS, OR EVEN YEARS DOWN
THE LINE, YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD MAY BE
A VITAL SOURCE OF SUPPORT WHEN
YOU NEED IT MOST. 
MAKE YOUR
NEIGHBORHOOD INTO A
COMMUNITY!
