We started @CitiesOfService #LoveYourBlock over a decade ago. Inspiring to see how it continues to strengthen neighborhoods and build social bonds — needed now more than ever.

[The Bloomberg Center for Public Innovation at JHU @publicinno]

@CitiesOfService #LoveYourBlock brings mayors and community members together to revitalize neighborhoods, one block at a time. Since 2009, 26,000+ community members have revitalized 3.6K community spaces, created nearly 750 art displays, removed 6M pounds of trash and much more.
