Residents of the 7th Ward: Notice of Intent to form a 7th Ward Neighborhood Association: please send to all faculty & staff
Hey now Dear 7th Ward Neighbor:
We are the last hold out, the largest neighborhood (10,000 residents, GNOCDC) without an association, without representation. I learned this just this May while seeking help improve my neighborhood. At Corpus Christi, I attended a meeting of the NPN (Neighborhood Partnership Network: http://www.npnnola.com/) and am following up. If we do not organize, we will have no say in the rebuilding of our city blocks, our neighborhoods, our lives. The following is pulled from public sources. Please read. Please join. Together, we can be heard, have a say in resources directed, and together improve our lives.
Sign up. I will share information. We can meet once per month to vote for officers, make a constitution, and our initial organizing meeting is at Augustine High School (A.P. Tureaud & Law St.), July 16th, 1 p.m. Thanks to Father Doyle for offering the cafeteria to us.
Sign up as many folks as you can. A sign-up sheet is attached.
We all need to be safe, green (healthy), and to sleep at night. We must organize or be ignored. We need a CIVIC Association. Help me help US!
Red Beans & Ricely Yours,
Mona Lisa
