What this shows
Community-defined joy
Places identified by youth and partners as joyful, safe, or meaningful — parks, centers, neighborhood spots, and other spaces that matter in everyday life.
Why it matters
Beyond deficits
Instead of starting with risk alone, this view surfaces where joy and connection live in the city — a foundation for asset-based planning and youth-centered design.
Integration
Connected to the Hub
Joy Map locations can be explored alongside neighborhood demographics, youth programs, and other Hub data to guide community-centered planning.
