COMMUNITY BUILDING INITIATIVE
CBI is a model developed by St. Joseph’s Hospital Community Partnership Fund to work with and train residents to assess community needs, select a goal to address those needs, and take action to achieve their goals. Delhi residents are currently working to improve the perception of community safety in the neighborhood through three strategies including
Strengthening community connections
Improving the physical environment

Residents have worked closely with city departments to make improvements in the neighborhood including:
Increased reporting of graffiti
