NeighborWorks America is a congressionally chartered and funded nonpartisan nonprofit.

NeighborWorks builds the skills, supplements the resources and amplifies the reach of network organizations so they can empower more individuals and transform more communities than they could on their own. NeighborWorks supports its network and the broader community development field with grant funding, peer exchange, technical assistance, evaluation tools and training. Recognizing the deep tie between community development and health, for the past decade, NeighborWorks has supported its network members in improving living conditions and addressing inequities. Today, nearly 70% of the NeighborWorks network is advancing health strategies in their communities.
