Welcome to your Neighbourhood Toolkit

This Neighbourhood Toolkit provides ideas, information and resources to help you make your neighbourhood a better place to live. We all have a role to play in making our communities safer, friendlier and more liveable. We hope this Toolkit can help you achieve those goals, and that it will encourage more people to feel empowered, to be engaged and to take responsibility for the wellbeing of their neighbourhoods.

Having a safe and happy neighbourhood is about a better quality of life for everyone, and we hope this toolkit will help you enhance the quality of life where you live.

We also know that it is not possible we have covered every resource for every topic in the Toolkit. If you would like to add something that we have missed, please do! You can send your suggestion to: cpo@ottawa.ca.

Thank you, and we look forward to your feedback!
