One of the Arlington City Council’s goals is to provide programs and services to directly support youth and their families, enabling them to reach their highest potential in life in The American Dream City.

A successful community requires a variety of support systems and an environment that enables our residents to flourish and grow. That includes the City of Arlington’s Block Party Trailer. The goal of the Block Party Trailer is to increase community engagement within neighborhoods throughout The American Dream City by providing a fun way for neighbors to get together. The trailer, available for free to neighborhoods, contains picnic tables, folding tables, chairs, water coolers, ice chests, trash and recycling cans, games, street barricades, cones and more. 
All quarterly City Council priority newsletters are produced in a digital formal, allowing for layers of additional video content and important links.
