19th Ward Neighborhood Association partners with ESL to form the 19th Ward Collaborative
After an extensive investigation that included gathering neighborhood level data and holding community meetings to get resident input, the 19th Ward Neighborhood Association and ESL have partnered to create a collaborative made up of stakeholders and non-profit groups to work together on homeownership & housing conditions, financial wellbeing, and the Thurston business corridor.
In addition to the 19th Ward and ESL, the collaborative is made up of 10 different non-profits who have housing and financial wellness programs. The collaborative’s goal is to work with residents to improve homeownership opportunities, housing conditions and financial wellbeing, strengthening households and the neighborhood at the same time. As part of this collaborative effort, The Enterprise Center at PathStone has hired a district manager to work with businesses, commercial property owners, other stakeholders, and the 19th Ward neighborhood to improve the Thurston business corridor.
The collaborative and Thurston district manager will be providing regular posts to this webpage to inform the neighborhood about upcoming outreach efforts and other activities being planned. Check in regularly for these updates and to lean more!
