is ACTION? The
word ACTION stands for Area Coordination In Our Neighborhood. This
concept originated within the Woodbury County and currently there are 4 teams in
Sioux City as well as ours, in Sergeant Bluff. The vision is to empower
neighborhoods within the community through partnership of public and private
agencies, resources, and residents to enhance the public safety, educational
opportunities and social welfare of children and their families. The
mission of the Sergeant Bluff Action team is to work together within the current
systems to communicate/coordinate services for individuals/families that are
both efficient and effective. To improve and enhance the quality of living in
our community, as well as providing leadership on such projects. Currently
the Sergeant Bluff ACTION team has representation from the School District, City
Council, Park and Recreation, City Maintenance, Police Dept, School Social
Worker, School Liaison Officer, Local Churches, Local Businesses, members of the
City of Sergeant Bluff and most importantly residents of Sergeant Bluff who have
knowledge and expertise from a variety of professional backgrounds.
