About CNN

Portland's community involvement system provides a forum for residents to participate in community efforts that reflect their needs. The neighborhood network is made up of 95 neighborhoods and seven coalitions.

Central Northeast Neighbors (CNN) is a community-based non-profit coalition of eight neighborhoods East of NE 33rd to I-205 and North of I-84 to the Columbia River.The CNN Board of Directors is made up of volunteer representatives living and/or working in Beaumont-Wilshire, Cully, Hollywood, Madison South, Rose City Park, Roseway, Sumner, and Sunderland neighborhoods.

We provide support and technical assistance to the volunteer-based neighborhood associations, community groups, individuals, and business associations. The coalition acts as a forum to strengthen communities to take action on issues identified by those communities. The coalition supports community-driven activities that contribute to livability, diversity, safety, vitality and sustainability.

 
The CNN Board welcomes all neighbors on 1st Wednesdays @ 7pm, in the CNN Community Room 4415 NE 87th Avenue. Click here to view the CNN bylaws.
