Traditional block clubs are groups of people who
have homes and families on any given block in the city and have
organized to improve the quality of life in their neighborhoods. People
who form block clubs are concerned and care about their communities and
share information, identify concerns and act collectively to address
those concerns.
There are many benefits to organizing a block
club. Knowing your neighbors and communicating on a regular basis can
help you identify quality of life issues and other trends in your
neighborhood and allow you to address those issues. Taking collective
action, sharing information, and raising awareness among your neighbors
will also help improve the safety of your block. With just a little
time and work from you and all your neighbors, you can make a big
impact on your community.
