To encourage inclusive civic voice and participation citywide, South Bend community leaders have formed the Neighborhoods Consortium (NC). The NC is composed of one representative and one alternate from the City’s active neighborhood and business associations as well as from a few key organizations that invest in neighborhoods. The purpose of the NC is for these representatives to:
- exchange valuable ideas, experience, and knowledge, as well as collaborate on projects;
- communicate their interests and concerns directly to City administration;
- serve as a conduit for timely, accurate information about NC activities and City programs, services, and initiatives, regularly reporting pertinent information from the NC to their respective neighborhood associations.
