North Brooklyn Neighbors (formerly Neighbors Allied for Good Growth)


  • About Us

    North Brooklyn Neighbors (NBN) is a grassroots nonprofit organization serving the Greenpoint and Williamsburg sections of Brooklyn. Founded in 1994, NAG advances community-based solutions on issues of public space and the environment – through activism, education, and collaboration – to create a more just, healthy, and safe place to live and work.

    We envision a North Brooklyn that actively collaborates to find solutions for neighborhood issues; is an effective climate and environmental justice advocate that prioritizes land use, public space, resiliency, and environmental health; and strengthens its diverse neighborhoods by providing resources, tools, and knowledge that promote positive change.
