Missouri Good Neighbor Week is coming up, and there are several ways to get involved!
Good neighbors do more than just share a fence line—they create a sense of belonging, support one another during tough times, and celebrate life’s joys together. Whether it’s a friendly wave, lending a tool, or organizing a block party, small acts of neighborly kindness can transform our communities into safer, happier places.
Submit nominations for Missouri's "Most Engaged Neighbor.
Every nominee will receive a letter that lets them know of their nomination and a memento (keychain) for Missouri Good Neighbor Week. Top award winners will be announced in the fall as part of Missouri Good Neighbor Week (Sept. 28 - Oct. 4).

Join us at a Good Neighbor Week event in Grain Valley!
Join us October 2nd at the Grain Valley Historical Society as we kick off our civic engagement efforts with a presentation from David Burton with the University of Missouri Extension. Burton is the creator of Missouri Good Neighbor Week, and will share how good neighboring makes a difference in your life, your neighborhood, and your community.
We're contributing to the final First Fridays event on October 3rd by setting up the Longest Table on Main Street. Simply grab a bite to eat or a drink from a local restaurant or food truck and then take a seat at the table. Catch up with old friends, meet new friends, and build community.
