Looking for a Volunteer Opportunity?
Our Healthy Blocks program is currently seeking volunteers
to help with surveys during the months of May and June in the Swillburg
neighborhood.
There are two types of
surveys: - A visual survey that would require volunteers to rate houses
based on their appearances.
- A door-to-door survey. These would take place during weekday evenings from
5-7:30 PM and would require volunteers to talk to residents about how they feel
about their neighborhood.
These surveys
help us to show the results of our neighborhood work, and a one-hour training is required beforehand.
If you have an interest in volunteering for either of these
survey projects, please contact Rachel Atwood
at 325-4170, ext. 332 or complete a volunteer registration form.
