  Street Coordinators
Becoming a street coordinator is a simple as taking a lead in your street.  One way is to go door to door along your street and talk about your want to help the street by connecting them up with a local residents group.  Gather the contact details from those who are interested and then send them some information. Contact CanCERN for more help on resident groups in your area info@cancern.org.nz
