It is unfortunately common for people to feel alienated from their  government, to feel as though the problems they experience in their  neighborhoods are not the problems that officials are talking about at  city hall. This feeling of alienation can lead to a lack of engagement,  which can lead to a further feeling of alienation, and on and on in a  vicious cycle. The City of Chattanooga Department of Neighborhood  Services is one way the city is working to break that cycle. In this  episode we'll learn more about the Neighborhood Services Department and  how they are working to better reconnect citizens with our government.
