Community Living Campaign

What it reported doing in 2024

Neighborhood Networks Community Connectors have organized neighbors in the Bayview, Cayuga, Merced Extension Triangle, Miraloma Park, Inner Sunset, OMI (Ocean View-Merced Heights-Ingleside), Parkmerced, Sunnyside, Midtown Terrace, Crocker Amazon, Potrero Hill, Other Sunset (via Senior Power) and St. Francis Square/Western Addition neighborhoods. These networks reweave communities of support focusing on food delivery, home repairs, healthy aging, breast cancer support, advocacy, social activities, and access to transportation services. Working together with hundreds of neighborhood volunteers and the support of numerous community partners this year, we helped create connections for thousands of San Francisco neighbors.Neighborhood Networks. Every neighborhood finds its own mix of activities and interests to bring people together and build caring communities. In the past year, we coordinated community-building activities such as senior exercise classes, walking groups, and community forums. Neighbors also helped each other with countless little tasks, pitching in where needed. Connector network participants feel healthier and more connected: 95% of participants know one or more neighbors to help, 81% provided help to a neighbor, and 66% actually requested help. During the COVID crises, virtually all of our activities transitioned online, which actually increased the number of people participated. We now continue to serve our communities with a mix of online and in-person services and activities.Grocery Networks. In the past year, neighbors delivered tens of thousands of bags of produce and healthy foods, made over 10,000 visits, and over a thousand hours of phone calls and assistance to people who can't stand in line at local food pantries. Along with needed groceries, recipients are more connected and have gotten help with everything from home safety improvements to connections to more formal in-home care.
