The ALN Board Members are volunteers actively involved
in many Newport organizations and activities, including our neighborhood associations. This background informs our discussion of the five areas of focus.
During the past two years 20 community forums
were hosted by ALN.
The Alliance for a Livable Newport is a diverse group of residents. Membership is open to any person, business or civic group.
