There have been decades of research demonstrating that housing is as vital as health care, and, therefore, during the pandemic, it became clear that housing instability and homelessness have to be addressed in order to return to normalcy. –

My husband and I are buying our first home, we are thrilled! We will be moving in within the next couple of months, and are eager to meet our new neighbors.
Our plan is to take a few minutes to knock on the door of each neighbor to say a quick hello and introduce our family of three.
I would like to bring along a small gift to each neighbor when we meet them, but am hesitant to bring homemade food items, due to unknown dietary restrictions and any possible discomfort someone may have with eating homemade food from a complete stranger.
Is there another token gift I could give that would be appropriate for a first meeting?
Dear New: I appreciate your friendly spirit, but I do NOT think it is a good idea to knock on strangers’ doors, even if they are your neighbors.
I can think of many reasons, ranging from the benign (someone is in the tub, working from home, or simply shy) to the deadly (you are mistaken for an intruder).
When you are new to a neighborhood, the best way to get to know people is to be outdoors, and – if you see a neighbor, wave, smile, and introduce yourself. Ask a couple of questions about garbage collection and the recycling schedule. You could then drop off a baked good as a thank you (note the ingredients, and they can decide whether to consume it).
Sometimes structure steals true joy. I know I’ve missed savoring a worthy moment because I was busy planning a perfect one…a moment savored says to our soul. You have lived something beautiful. And it keeps you buoyed. It sustains you when you’re running empty. It lifts you up and carries you forward.

I just stopped wasting my time trying to convince these people to give us a seat at whatever table they have. I want to create my own table, on my own terms. – Timnit Gebru
