Good Neighbor Week is an annual San Francisco campaign dedicated to fostering community connection, greening our blocks, and amplifying hyper-local support networks.
About the Map Project
This multi-layered interactive dashboard was created by the Good Neighbor Lab to catalog and share community infrastructure. It acts as an easy-to-use guide for residents looking to connect with neighborhood associations, local newsrooms, public library branches, and active volunteer organizations.
Inspired by the work of Cartographer Stephen Braitsch, the map is designed for seamless navigation and rapid neighborhood exploration.
