Join the EBNP Board and Make a Difference

Join the East Bank Board to shape our community’s future. Bring your unique perspective to tackle key issues and help our neighborhood thrive.

The East Bank Neighborhoods Partnership (EBNP) board needs your voice! A diverse and engaged board strengthens our neighborhoods, ensuring they remain vibrant places to live, work, learn, play, and grow for everyone—renters, homeowners, students, and elders alike.

​Our next board elections will take place in late 2025, and we’re excited to welcome new members. We’re especially looking for individuals with expertise or interest in areas like management, finances, creative placemaking, transportation/infrastructure, and land use and development.

Even if you’re new to these topics, your unique perspective matters. If you’re passionate about our neighborhoods and want to make a big impact, we encourage you to run!
