# [PAPER | Where We Live Matters](https://www.tamarackcommunity.ca/library/where-we-live-matters)

 Written by [Community Development Halton](https://www.tamarackcommunity.ca/library/author/community-development-halton) | August 7, 2015

This paper is a rich resource for undertaking place-based work at the neighbourhood level developed by Community Development Halton. It includes promising practices, a literature review and a proposed approach for this work for undertaking this work.

This paper presents an approach to neighbourhood work based on best and promising practice. It also acknowledges some of the limitations to and challenges of neighbourhood work that arise from the larger social structures and relationships of power in which neighbourhoods are situated and in which residents seek to build their own futures.
