This continuing partnership between the City and County of San Francisco's Neighborhood Empowerment Network and the Institute for Civic and Community Engagement (ICCE) at SF State involves multiple projects that engage students in service to San Francisco neighborhoods and non-profit organizations.
One of the initiatives under the NENu Neighborhood Resilience Project is the Alliance for Strong Inclusive Neighborhoods (ASIN), which brings together a wide variety of neighborhood stakeholders to identify and prioritize common challenges, set goals, mobilize available resources, and implement strategies for change. ASIN's method employs asset-based community development approaches coupled with an emphasis on civic engagement.
In the first year, this project did a thorough analysis of the community assets, conducted numerous stakeholder interviews, developed short-term projects with agencies in District 11 and provided funding to faculty for CSL course integration, and worked very closely with several city departments, the District 11 Supervisor's office, and two neighborhood coalitions to coordinate action.
