About Us

In September 1992, the City Council passed legislation designating eight Neighborhood Councils whose boundaries correspond to the City's traditional planning areas. Each Neighborhood Council serves as an independent, non-profit citizen-based efforts for neighborhood improvement.  Why get involved in a neighborhood council?  For Tacoma to become a more livable, safer, and united city, a broad and diverse cross section of citizens must join together to develop projects and implement positive changes in their neighborhood.

Our Goals

The SouthEnd Neighborhood Council (SENCo) is an independent non-profit (501-C-3) corporation formed to address issues and concern at  the neighborhood level and to work cooperatively with neighborhood groups for the attainment of neighborhood goals. The SENCo seeks to encourage the participation of all citizens in the govermental process and to maximize thier use of resources through the concepts of self-help, group organization and utilization of available services and funding sources.  SENCo believes that the quality of life within our neighborhoods is of common interests, our goals of social and economic justice, and building and maintaining said quality of life within our communities.  SENCo will foster a partnership of open communications between all groups, the City of Tacoma, and its neighborhoods.
