The Abundant Community initiative is focused on building community resilience, capacity & advocacy in Edmonton neighbourhoods. It is about neighbours caring for neighbours and building community where they live opportunity to build blocks and neighbourhoods where we look out for one another, share our skills and resources within one another and collectively build the neighbourhood we dream of.
Turn the strangers that live next door into neighbours by saying hello, getting to know each other and connecting your community. Connected communities foster a sense of belonging. They can also facilitate local social and recreation activities, increase participation in civic engagement, reduce isolation and increase safety on the block. It can be fun getting to know your neighbours!
Windsor Park Community League supports and organizes activities to support community connectedness so that residents and groups can strengthen their skills and connections by working together to undertake initiatives that directly benefit their community. If you are interested in planning a block party or a play street event, or have a skill or idea to share with your community, contact: info@windsor-park.ca
If you already know or are interested in getting to know your neighbours, can commit to a once monthly check in meeting, can connect 1x a month with a network of neighbourhood connectors from around Edmonton as our WP NEIGHBOURHOOD CONNECTOR, OR are able to connect on an ongoing basis with your block as a WP BLOCK CONNECTOR, please contact: info@windsor-park.ca.
