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).
