What Is the Good Neighbor Project
The Good Neighbor Project is neighborhood program that is designed to fit the individual needs of community neighborhoods. There is no formal process to follow and there are no requirements for neighborhood boundaries, size, or meeting expectations. The goals of the program are:

  • To Empower and Stabilize neighborhoods by connecting neighbors and building meaningful relationships
  • To foster and encourage natural crime prevention and community engagement through the process of forming functioning neighborhood groups
  • To enhance communication and collaboration with citizens through a partnership with City staff and the Davenport Police Department
