Why Neighbor 2 Neighbor?
​​
Neighbor 2 Neighbor, founded and led by neighborhood leaders is laser-focused on helping residents and neighborhood organizations succeed.
We are a local nonprofit organization committed to supporting the efforts of local residents and neighborhood organizations.
For over twenty-five years, we have offered training and networking opportunities, consultation and referrals, and worked together with our neighbors on collaborative activities.
At our core, we believe that residents are the ones who know their neighborhood best. There must be meaningful neighborhood involvement in any decisions affecting the place they call home

2. Consultation and Referrals
We consult with neighborhood organizations on a wide range of issues such as crime and public safety, beautification, planning and development, housing and transportation, neighborhood preservation and revitalization, gentrification and displacement, green spaces and places to play, diversity and inclusion, and most recently disaster preparedness and response.
Residents seeking to start or restart their neighborhood organization will find a committed partner in Neighbor 2 Neighbor. We will work with you to help you get your organization up and running and moving forward.
We have an extensive network of community partners that includes neighborhood organizations, elected officials and government agencies, nonprofit organizations, academic institutions, and corporations. We are happy to provide referrals to assist you in obtaining the support you need.
