Collaboration for Community Engagement

CBNO is a co-founder and member of coalitions such as the Orleans Parish Education Network (OPEN), the New Orleans Coalition on Open Governance (NOCOG), and other vital partnerships that inform and engage community members in collaborative problem-solving.

CBNO is a multi-racial, multi-generational community organization, a catalyst and convener, working to bring all voices to the table to address systemic issues that will help to build a better quality of life for all New Orleanians. CBNO will accomplish its mission by providing and maintaining an advocacy role that encourages the kinds of partnership, collaboration and candid conversation that reflect the interests of all the citizens of New Orleans.

Our goal is nothing less than to help New Orleans return to its rightful place among the great cities of the world.
