Kent Neighborhood Program

 

With well-established neighborhoods, award winning parks and a great school system, Kent is a fantastic community to live and raise a family. The Neighborhood Program was created to promote and sustain an environment that is responsive to resident involvement while building partnerships between the city and its residents.

 

 

Neighborhood Councils

 

Neighborhood Councils are organized groups that work to improve communication and provide opportunities for residents

to participate in the civic process.
