How Can Community Organizers Help?
5-1-2010
Community Organizers and Volunteers' goal is to increase property values and they create the sayings like "you didn't just buy a home, you bought a stake in the neighborhood". When people move into the neighborhood the community organizers give the residents the expectation that they need to do more to help the neighborhood. When they push the residents to keep their properties up to date and clean it causes a chain reaction and establishes pride within the community as well as the individuals and neighbors. Community organizers know that everything is incremental. This work does not happen over night it takes years of consistent pressure and volunteerism to make a neighborhood attractive.
