Engaged Neighbor Program
The Engaged Neighbor Program began in Greene County in 2019 and has grown to a statewide program. Efforts under the Engaged Neighbor Program name include classes, special events, presentations, partnerships, publications, an award-winning newsletter, and events like Missouri Good Neighbor Week, Show-Me Neighborhood Art Week and Won’t You Be My Neighbor Day. Being an Engaged Neighbor improves the safety and connectedness of our neighborhoods and communities, increases social capital and showcases asset-based community development.

The word neighboring can mean different things to different people, communities and organizations. As a result, we have tried to bring some focus on the engaged neighbor program.
