Neighborhood Alliance Gets Results!
Currently, more than 360 neighborhood associations and homeowner associations in communities throughout central Oklahoma utilize the programs and services of Neighborhood Alliance to insure their neighborhoods stay safe and attractive.
The Alliance:
- Sponsors National Night Out, an annual crime prevention awareness campaign.
- Assists neighborhoods in applying for grant funds to create beautification or safety programs that benefit their neighborhood.
- Helped Oklahoma City take a giant step through the efforts of Neighborhood Action, an affiliate of Neighborhood Alliance, when city residents voted for increased police and fire protection. Thanks to this funding, the OKC Fire Department had the special ladder trucks necessary to respond to the April 19th, 1995, bombing tragedy.
- Pioneered a pilot neighborhood redevelopment program in the Paseo Neighborhood that has received a positive review by the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Other neighborhoods are able to use this program as a model for zoning and redevelopment.
- Has helped improve community standards by working for solid, sensible ordinance development, good planning and zoning.
Funding & Staffing
Neighborhood Alliance is a 501(c) 3 non-profit organization with an annual budget of $250,000. We have very generous donors, endowments and foundations that help us reach our goal each year. We also work cooperatively with the City of Oklahoma City to provide a conduit for neighborhoods and citizens to partner with city staff in affecting positive changes in their areas.
Like the associations we assist, we rely on the involvement and participation of the numerous volunteers who directly support our activities, the dedicated members of our Board of Directors as well as the commitment and drive of our staff.
