National Association of Neighborhoods

The National Association of Neighborhoods (NAN) is one of America’s largest and oldest grassroots multi-issue membership organizations. NAN’s mission is to improve the quality of life in the nation’s most important communities – its neighborhoods. To further its mission, the Association’s more than 2,500 members join together to share and expand their resources, their knowledge, and their work.

Individually and collectively, through NAN, these grassroots organizations strive to improve economic, social, environmental, health, and safety conditions in their neighborhoods. NAN assists by identifying and addressing emerging issues, as well as, continuing to seek mutual solutions to persistent and difficult neighborhood problems.
