Another Successful DHIC Gathering!

Posted on by

About 60 neighbors attended DHIC’s annual gathering at the top of the Sanchez Stairs.  Filling out name tags, they met each other while enjoying refreshments.  DHIC Board members provided information on our block safety groups, the Green Gardens folks who steward our green spaces, and the Dolores Heights fundraising for the Mission High School Scholarship fund. They also listened to and asked questions of Supervisor Rafael Mandelman and State Senator Scott Wiener.  Topics ranged from concerns about public safety, city efficiency, to upzoning and housing.  

Strong networks are the foundation of neighborhood, community, health, and safety.  Thanks to everyone for turning out and spending some of your Saturday with neighbors. Stay turned for information on our Fall event.  Questions?  Ideas? Comments?  Email info@doloresheights.org.
