What’s Slack? What’s Signal?
Slack
Slack is our online community space where neighbors can stay connected, share resources, and organize together. We use the free version, which means messages are only saved for about 3 months.
In addition to discussions around housing, we have channels for things like:
Social justice and mutual aid resources
Events and neighborhood gatherings
Tree care and gardening
Free items
...and even a channel just for cats 🐱
To join:
Download the Slack app — heads up, it might take a minute to set up!

Signal
Signal is a secure, encrypted messaging app. We use it for faster, more direct group chats. Especially for coordinating in real-time. Great for event updates or getting help quickly.
You can download Signal here. We have groups for Walks, Vernon Neighbors, and the Neighbors Market
