Mission

To improve the quality of life in East Baton Rouge Parish by connecting citizens with the service they need and by providing support to East Baton Rouge Parish neighborhood and civic associations. The Office of Neighborhoods achieves this by accomplishing the following goals:

Providing helpful information to constituents and neighborhood and civic associations, particularly on issues, policies, and procedures that most affect neighborhoods, especially in reference to City-Parish government services;

Providing training and education to constituents and neighborhood and civic associations, teaching citizens how to affect positive change in their communities;

Facilitating partnerships between constituents and neighborhoods and other groups, including local government departments, faith-based institutions, businesses, schools, universities, and not-for-profit organizations, enabling constituents and neighborhoods to utilize resources around them to their full potential;

Advocating policies and procedures that will facilitate, not hinder the work of constituents and neighborhood and civic associations as they work to improve their lives and neighborhoods.
