Neighboring 101 is not just for new homeowners or people new to community life. The ongoing program is for anyone wanting to improve their neighborhood or community as well as their personal life and health.
When you register or subscribe to the program, you get access to all past classes. Class members can also access David Burton for individual coaching sessions on neighboring.
Neighboring 101 class members also receive a special digital newsletter for the class.
In these monthly Zoom classes, we will look at the science and art of neighboring by highlighting examples across the nation where it is being done well. Past guests have included neighborhood award winners, practitioners, authors, and researchers.
Being an active and engaged neighbor can help people, organizations, and communities to expand participation while respecting differences and embracing the diversity that makes communities vibrant.
Join host David Burton for this live zoom presentation and question and answer session. Individuals who register now also receive a link to all past class videos (starting in 2021). These exclusive class videos are only available to individuals who register.
Registration is required online, but this a one-time registration.
