Last week, LISC Houston explored Denver Harbor in the second of three community development bus tours. Attended by local leaders, partners, and stakeholders, the tour provided valuable insight into the neighborhood's assets, history, ongoing initiatives, and the organizations working to strengthen the community.

Special thanks to Ryan Martinez, and Denver Harbor Cares for the welcome, and perspective on the neighborhood.

Thanks to all for their participation, perspectives, and contributions!

What does it take to build a stronger community? For residents in Spring Branch, the answer is increasingly about having a seat at the table.

In June, Memorial Assistance Ministries (MAM) and LISC Houston brought together local residents and Getting Ahead participants for a Civic Engagement Workshop that explored how everyday people can influence the decisions that shape their neighborhoods.

Participants learned how local government works, connected with community leaders, and shared their vision for Spring Branch's future. Read more about these engaging conversations at https://tinyurl.com/3dkad9vj
The next round of conversations will take place July 29!
