How to start a Block Association

When residents get organized into neighborhood groups like block associations, tenants’ groups, or civic associations they become a force for dealing with local problems and building a better neighborhood. When neighbors get together around a common issue, they are able to get things done that individuals cannot. If you think your building, block or neighborhood should be organized, look over the six steps explained below. They are drawn from the experiences of thousands of residents that are organizing their buildings, cleaning up their neighborhoods, planting and maintaining community gardens, improving schools, combating racism, or otherwise working to improve neighborhood livability.

A. DEFINE AND RESEARCH THE ISSUES
B. RESEARCH THE COMMUNITY
C. BUILD A CORE GROUP
D. HOLD A CORE GROUP MEETING
E. REACH OUT TO THE COMMUNITY
F. PLAN A GENERAL MEETING

What are the benefits of starting a block association?

It can serve several functions in a neighborhood. They can provide social opportunities to help neighbors get to know one another, through planning block parties and other events. They can also provide functional opportunities to plan for security, holiday decorating ideas and/or plant coordination.
