Together with our community partners, including members of the South Shore Drill Team and C.H.A.M.P.S. Male Mentoring, S.O.B.N.O. will be sponsoring this annual community cleanup with assistance from City of Chicago Streets and Sanitation.

Meet up with your neighbors and other volunteers at 10 AM in Hoard Park (72nd & Greenwood) as we make our community the best it can be. The cleanup will go until 2 PM.



Time for Action: Safety and Peace are on the Line

When you see trouble – please do two things: Call 911 AND contact your neighbors.

Residents of the South Oakwood-Brookhaven community must call 911 in the highest possible numbersto get the attention this community needs from 003rd District Police. Their response is based on our calls.

Reach out to your trusted neighbors to form phone/text treeson your block.

Then, when anyone has to call 911, also reach out to the rest of your tree to call 911 along with you, reporting the same issue, to ensure multiple calls about that issue go into police at once.

Reach out to neighboring blocksalso affected by the same issue to solicit their help in calling 911, too.

There is strength in numbers!

With the recent shooting, drug activity, loitering, loud music, littering and illegal fireworks our community must unite to re-establish and maintain safety and a decent quality of life.

There are a number of online resources to help block clubs get started, including My Block, My Hood, My City .
