Neighborhood Advisory Committee

Neighborhood Advisory Committee


The NAC (Neighborhood Advisory Committee) Program is one of the major ways that we engage with residents in our community. Through the NAC Program, we host monthly community meetings, coordinate multiple active subcommittees, conduct outreach, and engage in various projects and activities for the benefit of our neighbors.

Through partnerships with other organizations, we have engaged neighbors in community art projects, specialized community forums, resource trainings, and advocacy initiatives. In addition, our monthly community meetings convene residents with various providers and others to provide vital information and training to members of the community. We are always in pursuit of new, innovative resources that can bring relief and joy to our neighbors’ day-to-day lives.

A beacon of the NAC Program is Team NAS (Neighborhood Advisory Subcommittee), a group of residents elected by their peers to represent the interests of the community. Team NAS is a platform by which residents can affect physical and social change through community meetings, zoning hearings, event planning, outreach, and advocacy. As the host organization for our community’s NAS, we are receptive to their interests and ensure that their priorities are communicated directly to the City of Philadelphia via DHCD (Division of Housing & Community Development).

HACE will be hosting the next round of Neighborhood Elections in 2025, and there are many ways to get involved:

  • Election Committee member
  • Team NAS member (nominate yourself and/or another eligible community member)
  • Vote on Neighborhood Election Day
  • Help us spread the word

Note: Eligible participants must be 18+ years old and live and/or work in HACE’s NAC service area.

All are welcome to attend our monthly community meetings:

Every 2nd Wednesday of the month at 5:30 pm
We invite you to join via Zoom or by dialing in. Please contact NAC Program Director, Stasia Monteiro for more information.
