Entering the Drum Circle

Every day, teachers and school administrators walk onto their school campuses and encounter kids who are struggling with academic difficulties and behavioral issues. But there is hope, and sometimes it comes in unexpected forms. For a class of fifth graders at Heaton Elementary School, implementing Beat the Odds, a social-emotional drumming program, has been instrumental in creating life change.

Fall in Love with Fresno – ENP’s Fall Banquet – September 27th

Every Neighborhood Partnership presents:

THE 2ND ANNUAL

Fall in Love with Fresno Banquet

Please join us for an evening celebrating the great work being done in our community. Our ten years of work has allowed us to build trust in the community, our churches, businesses, and other institutions. As we lean into our 11th year, we can reflect back and see that ENP looks different than it did at its inception in 2008. We are proud of that. As life changes, communities change, and therefore we glean a deeper understanding of our city. We hope with each passing year our community is in a better place to thrive, our kids are excelling and our families are healthier in many ways.

Luis Palau Series 1: Our Work in the City

Every Neighborhood Partnership is partnering with the Luis Palau National group to create a six-month series that describes our work in the city. Below is the first post in the series, a letter from our Executive Director, Artie Padilla.

The Church in Fresno; Every Neighborhood Partnership’s role in our city and our vision to build the Kingdom, one neighborhood at a time.

Fresno CA is a city of 525,000 residents. Incorporated in 1885, it started as a small railroad stop and slowly grew to a small town. After WWII, it really went on a growth spurt, quadrupling in its geographical footprint and swelling from 125,000 residents to its current population. That’s a lot of growth.

Success Stories: Highlights of Being a Literacy Mentor

We currently have 115 Literacy Mentors at 12 schools working with nearly 400 students across Fresno and Clovis. And with two scheduled Orientations in the next week, those numbers will continue to grow! However, what excites me much more than numbers is the investment and relationships of each individual mentor. Every day I hear an inspiring story. Here are just a few of my favorite success stories…
