Preparing for ACTION in our neighborhoods! SLACO is committed to the principle that neighborhood residents should take the lead role in determining the future of their neighborhoods. Good neighborhoods and healthy communities don’t just happen on their own - they take hard work and commitment. SLACO’s Neighborhood Leadership Academy is designed to assist neighborhood leaders who wish to exchange ideas and proven community-building techniques. With the knowledge of effective practices, our leaders can build upon the wealth of knowledge and experience within our neighborhoods to preserve what is good about our neighborhoods and to create healthy, safe, and sustainable communities.
