August 3 - 8, 2009

Sponsored by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Neighborhood Networks Week is a weeklong celebration that recognizes the achievements of Multifamily Neighborhood Networks centers located throughout the United States, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. During the celebration, HUD's more than 1,500 Neighborhood Networks centers are encouraged to participate by hosting events, such as open houses, grand openings, fairs, and community outreach days.

Join in this year's weeklong celebration of "Neighborhood Networks: A Community Asset" from August 3 - 8, 2009 by participating in HUD-sponsored national events and/or by hosting your own local events to demonstrate that residents can look to their local Neighborhood Networks center for opportunities.

Special Event Days

To reinforce the mission of the Neighborhood Networks Initiative, enhance Neighborhood Networks Week, and encourage more centers to host local events, Special Event Days will be observed. These days will be launched during Neighborhood Networks Week 2009. They are:

	Do It for You Day (Tuesday, August 4).
	Get Connected Day (Wednesday, August 5).
	Know Your Neighbors Day (Thursday, August 6).

These Neighborhood Networks Week Special Event Days support key goals of the Neighborhood Networks Initiative; moving residents toward self-sufficiency, delivering technology access, and building stronger communities.
