Our Mission
The Little Italy Neighborhood Association (LINA) is dedicated to the preservation, protection, growth, and general well-being of the Little Italy community by collaborating with community members and others who share our objectives to celebrate urban Italian living through communal, cultural, educational, literary, and charitable endeavors and to effectively address and solve area problems.
LINA
The Little Italy Neighborhood Association is a 501(c)(3) non profit organization. We are neighbors and business owners working to create an even better community. Our volunteers spearhead many neighborhood projects and support those of our partner organizations.
We have an elected board and formal bylaws to govern our activities. The organization generally meets on the third Tuesday of each month at a different restaurant or business. To get the latest information, go to the bottom of this page and sign up to join our email list.
