We like to refer to San Antonio as a “small big city,” and it’s true. It’s also true that we are one of the most economically divided cities in the nation. All of us have big dreams for our families and children—but we don’t all have access to opportunities to make these dreams a reality. Together, we can make it better for everyone.
That’s the question we’re asking every day. Join us as we meet and talk with the experts—local families, nonprofit leaders, historians, economists, ministers, community organizers, and more—about the strengths and struggles of your neighbors across the city.
SubscribeLearn how San Antonio was designed to be divided in this brief and fascinating history of our city’s neighborhoods.
Stories of three remarkable women contributing to the health and vitality of San Antonio’s Southside: a woman who committed her years in retirement to fighting for her neighborhood, a transformative leader still in the thick of her career, and a recent high school graduate rising up from her Southside roots.
We work with community partners throughout the city to hold events and experiences introducing you to new people and places. Join us at an upcoming event!
