NORTHERN BERKSHIRE NEIGHBORS (NBN) is a neighborhood development program of the Northern Berkshire Community Coalition.

OUR MISSION is to promote community building by bringing together neighborhood residents of all ages to discover and capitalize upon the potential and resources that exist in their communities and neighborhoods.

OUR GOAL is to create greater citizen awareness of how active participation in one’s neighborhoood and community events contributes to one’s personal health and to the health of the community.

OUR HISTORY
NBN emerged in the summer of 1993 in response to the promising potential of neighbors to come together to address issues that affect the everyday lives of families and children where they live.

NEIGHBORHOOD GROUPS are active in the Blackinton Neighborhood, Brayton Hill Terrace, Greylock Valley, Mohawk Forest, Tunnel Brook, and UNO (United Neighborhood Organization, Bracewell Avenue area) in North Adams, Columbia Valley in Adams, and Florida Mountain.

PROGRAMS include Community Organizing/Neighborhood Development, Public Health Incentive Grants, Leadership Development & Education, Community Recognition Awards, The Neighborhood EXPO, Neighborhood Summits, Community Collaboration, and Neighborhood/Community Events.
