Programs
The HMPNA coordinates several programs with the assistance of neighborhood volunteers, including:
- Safe Neighborhood Awareness Program (SNAP, our version of Crime Watch)
- Alley cleanups
- Alliance for Senior Advocacy Program (ASAP, assisting neighbors age 62+ with things like applying for winter assistance, grocery shopping, light cleaning, home repairs, etc.)
- Gardening efforts for public spaces
- Annual social events, such as the Cajun Brunch, Summer Barbecue, Fall Festival, and Holiday Party.
We offer lots of opportunities for involvement.
HMPNA Board Meetings
The HMPNA Board meets on the second Monday of the month. Meeting locations vary, however, any neighbor who wants to address the Board or have meeting items that they’d like to discuss with the Board should email board@historicmeridianpark.org to get on an upcoming meeting agenda.
