South East Salem area neighbors and community partners have been making a difference where they live and work since 1997 through the Neighborhood Partnership Program.  In 2011, the City restructured this program to a “Rotating Partnership” model giving it the flexibility to impact multiple areas of Salem.

That same year, the SESNA Partnership Group officially joined forces with the South High Community Progress Team to form South Salem Connect.  The group is committed to continuing work on strengthening the SESNA Neighborhood while supporting children, families and neighborhood livability of all South Salem neighborhoods.  The group is also working to recruit members from beyond the boundaries of SESNA to include others within the South High feeder district. 

In 2012, Partnership support went to another area of Salem but South East neighbors and community partners continue to work together through South Salem Connect.
