West End P.O.W.E.R. and the Pitt School of Social Work are collaborating on a project to co-create safe spaces, rekindle community connections and relationships, and strengthen supports for young people who are the future of our community. During the first phase of our project we are surveying adult residents in the West Side City neighborhoods about their engagement and connections in the neighborhood, perceptions of and exposure to neighborhood violence, their mental health, and norms and values related to violence prevention.
