Phase 2 · Step 9 of 10

Welcome New Neighbors

Make joining the community an explicit, repeatable process instead of leaving it to chance.

The core principle

A durable neighborhood has a front door for the people who arrive next.

What to do next

  • Choose a welcome person
  • Share the group and upcoming calendar
  • Introduce newcomers to nearby neighbors

Choose a welcome person and give every newcomer the same essentials: a short welcome, the virtual-group link, upcoming dates, useful local information, and introductions to people nearby.
