Neighborhoods Resource Center

Neighborhood Organizing

Training Newsprint spacer We offer organizing assistance to help community groups build membership, identify common goals, and develop strategies to move their groups ahead. Most neighborhoods face common issues, so the lessons learned in one community can be quickly put to use in another.

We currently offer intensive assistance to approximately 22 Nashville neighborhoods, and serve as a consultant to many more.  For more information about community organizing, or to request assistance, please contact Mike Hodge at 615-782-8212.

 


 

Solutions to many neighborhood problems can only be found by working together across neighborhoods.   In 2006, NRC and the Nashville Neighborhood Alliance brought together over 250 neighborhood leaders from all across the city to determine the key issues facing us.   Since that time, neighborhood leaders have met to focus on public safety issues, concerns about group homes, inmate re-entry, Codes and neighborhood condition issues, as well as other problems.  

The 2006 booklet "The Future of Neighborhoods" is attached to this page.   We believe that the issues outlined here are still critical to our common future.
