Start a Neighborhood Association
A neighborhood association is a geographically based organization of people who organize around common interests of the members. It provides a means for neighbors to decide what needs to be done and work together to make it happen. Together, neighbors can plan projects and activities beneficial to their area, create a forum for discussion of local issues, and establish means to participate in community decision-making.
