Neighborhood Directory
Neighborhood Connections, in partnership with Project Access, Neighborhood Leadership Institute, the Neighborhood Leadership Development Program, and the Cleveland Neighborhood Development Coalition, created a directory of neighborhood groups and organizations, along with valuable resources, that is available now. You can call Cynthia Lewis at 216.393.4642 or email her at clewis@neighborhoodgrants.org to order a copy or download one here. If you'd like your group or organization to be listed in the directory, or want to update your information, please click here.


We hope you and others in your neighborhood will use this directory to connect with other groups and organizations in your neighborhood and in the city of Cleveland to learn from each other, collaborate, and create more power to effect change in the community.

FEATURED STORY

The successes and challenges of building community 

Many older faith based organizations have few congregants from their neighborhood involved. The Fairfax Inter-Organizational Network is striving to build stronger relationships between their congregations and the Fairfax neighborhood through a quilting project. Read more about the group inside.


Neighborhood Connections is an affiliated program of the Cleveland Foundation.
