How to Become a Recognized Neighborhood Association

Recognized Neighborhood Associations are community organizations formed by residents within a specific geographical area, typically a neighborhood or local community. The primary purpose of a Neighborhood Association is to facilitate communication, cooperation, and collective action among residents to address common concerns, enhance the quality of life, and promote the well-being of the neighborhood.

Neighborhood Associations are required to resubmit their information every two years to maintain their verification. A certificate of recognition from the Mayor will be provided after registration is completed. Keep us updated regarding your Neighborhood Association by completing our Neighborhood Association Information Update Form found below. In order to be officially recognized by The Mayor’s Neighborhood Engagement Office (NEO) as a Neighborhood Association in the City of New Orleans, the following criteria must be met by interested applicants.

• Registration: Neighborhood Association leadership should register their Neighborhood Association with the Mayor’s Neighborhood Engagement Office by completing the Neighborhood Association Information Update Form below. Required information will include items such as Neighborhood Association name and boundaries, president’s name and contact info.
• Host Meeting: Neighborhood Associations can host as many meetings as seen fit, but each Neighborhood Association is required to hold at least one general membership meeting per year. The NEO liaison for the area should also be invited to attend this meeting. NEO liaison information can be found at nola.gov/next/neighborhood-engagement-office/contact/

After completing each step listed above, the Neighborhood Association will receive an email from the Mayor’s Neighborhood Engagement Office that states all requirements have been met to be recognized as a Neighborhood Association. The information provided in the registration link will be available on the NEO webpage as public information within two weeks after all required steps have been completed. As a recognized Neighborhood Association, a mayoral certificate of recognition will be presented to the Neighborhood Association by the Mayor’s Neighborhood Engagement Office.
