NIA Mission

The NIA is a not-for-profit community based organization dedicated to improving the quality of life throughout the Brooklyn, New York communities it serves. The NIA is a non-partisan secular organization that has no affiliation with any political entity or religious institution.

The NIA's primary goals are to promote economic and physical improvement, encourage ethnic and neighborhood pride as well as to address sociological issues relating to improving family life. Whether it's through, providing counseling service to assist youth, adults and families who have been involved in issues of domestic violence or relationship abuse, sponsoring comprehensive after school youth programs, or supporting recreational and cultural activities, the NIA offers community residents an avenue for self-improvement and an improved quality of life.

The NIA continues its tradition of providing cost-free services by also offering assistance with social service issues through needs assessments, community initiatives, linkages, referrals to existing resources, and by developing an array of quality programs and services.
