Neighborhood Services

Neighborhood Services Seal

Neighborhood Services serves City of Charleston residents by being a trusted partner to neighborhoods with the intent of promoting equitable access to resources, civic engagement, and community decision-making through education, dialogue, and outreach. We envision a city where residents feel empowered to participate in community decision-making processes and have equitable access to City resources.

Neighborhood Toolkit

The Neighborhood Toolkit was created by the City of Charleston in partnership with Enough Pie, a local non-profit using creativity to connect and empower the community. The toolkit provides support and sample materials for neighborhood associations to help create and maintain dynamic and connected communities. It includes an introduction to the City team who supports neighborhood efforts, ideas for organizing neighborhood meetings, templates for materials, new ways to communicate and more. View the toolkit (PDF).
