The goal is simple; we want to connect residents to their local government, promote civic engagement, and strengthen relationships.

• To revitalize, improve and maintain the quality of El Paso's neighborhoods by communicating with residents and addressing their concerns and needs.
• Connect residents to City services related to neighborhood needs.
• Provide support and assistance for the development and sustainability of neighborhood associations.
