Information by State  Print version

Neighborhood Networks centers have a positive ripple effect that reaches the entire community. A center improves the quality of life for individuals and the entire community by:

	Providing residents of surrounding communities with access to resources, programs, and services for adults, children, youth, seniors, and people with disabilities.
	Equipping people with the skills necessary to compete in today's marketplace and take a more active role in community activities.
	Decreasing the incidents of crime and vandalism by providing access to employment opportunities and promoting community involvement.
