Who should decide what happens with neighborhood data?

The answer is simple: the neighbors who collected it and shared their life experiences.

Over 245 Oakdale and Boston Square neighbors completed the FNI survey, sharing their experiences, challenges, and hopes for our community. Now it's time to bring those results back to the people who made them possible.

Join us for a Community Lunch on June 6 as we explore how we can expand access to mental health and legal services and begin identifying solutions together.

Your voice matters. Your ideas matter. Your neighborhood matters.

Last year, 245 Oakdale and Boston Square neighbors shared their experiences, hopes, and concerns through the Flourishing Neighborhood Index (FNI) survey. Now it's time to bring that data back to the community and decide what we want to do together.

Join us for a Community Lunch on Saturday, June 6, where we'll explore one important question: How can we expand access to mental health and legal services in our neighborhood?

This is more than a meeting—it's an opportunity to turn neighborhood data into neighborhood action.

Learn what your neighbors shared, discuss the results, and help identify practical ideas to strengthen our community.

Whether you completed the survey or not, your perspective matters. Bring a friend, meet your neighbors, and help us build a stronger, more flourishing community together.

Happy birthday to the neighborhood artist bringing new life and color to Kabo Flats! 🎨

We’re grateful to celebrate a local creative whose work is helping tell the story of Boston Square through public art. He was selected by the Art Amplified Committee, a group of neighborhood artists working to beautify, engage, and reflect the community through various forms of art.

As the mural comes to life, so does another piece of the larger vision for a vibrant, creative, and community-centered Boston Square.

Join us in wishing him a happy birthday and thanking him for sharing his talent with the neighborhood! 👏🏾
