Opportunity Neighborhoods (ON)

Opportunity Neighborhoods (ON) is a Fairfax County initiative that brings together residents, service providers, schools, and other supporters—in defined communities—in support of a shared vision to address needs and achieve equitable results for youth and their caregivers. Cornerstones serves as a backbone organization for ON, driving the initiative’s work in Reston (RestON) and Herndon (ON Herndon).
- Working closely with diverse community partners and stakeholders, our team helps advance systems-change at the local, regional, county, and state levels.
- Through strategic partnerships with community leaders and stakeholders, we encourage engagement and foster relationship-building opportunities that empower individuals and promote positive change in Reston, Herndon, and Fairfax County.
ON Neighborhood Ambassador Program
The Neighborhood Ambassador Program is a vital part of Opportunity Neighborhoods. Ambassadors are residents who lend their voices and lead efforts for positive change within their communities. They help ensure that neighborhood concerns and ideas are heard by elected officials, decision-makers, and community partners—driving real opportunities for stronger, more equitable support.
