Our mission
“The White Plains Council of Neighborhood Associations coordinates the neighborhood associations in White Plains, NY. Its purpose is to enhance the quality of life in the City, and in particular, in its neighborhoods. As an advisory council, the WPCNA functions by disseminating information and opinion to the public and public officials, and by encouraging local action.”

Share information
WPCNA helps circulate neighborhood concerns, meeting information, civic updates, and public-interest items that residents may otherwise have to find across several different sources.
Connect associations
The council gives neighborhood associations a place to exchange ideas, compare concerns, and learn from one another.
Encourage local action
When issues affect neighborhoods, WPCNA helps residents stay organized, informed, and connected to the right public process.

How WPCNA works
Governance, by-laws, and committees
WPCNA’s by-laws and committee work help give the council structure. They support regular communication among neighborhood associations, provide a way to track issues, and help organize discussion around citywide topics.
If you are looking for governance materials, committee information, or guidance on how the council is organized, contact WPCNA and someone can point you in the right direction.
