UNNC is an elected board of 23 people who care about the community, representing our neighborhoods to LA City Council, agencies, departments and other elected representatives.
UNNC helps make decisions about trees, parks and green space, youth and community activities, keeping neighborhoods clean and safe, helping bring beneficial shopping and business services to our area, maintain our historic neighborhoods, and gives members of the community a voice in making decisions. Our goal is community improvement through civic engagement.
Candidates should be available to attend our monthly General and Board meetings and be active in at least one committee.
