ABOUT US:
Through a centrally-coordinated, local network of screened volunteers and vetted professional providers, NNV offers its members transportation to medical appointments, grocery shopping assistance, home repairs and handyman help, computer and technology assistance, access to social and cultural activities and more. NNV also makes appointments for members with professionals such as electricians, plumbers, and home health care providers.

Beacon Hill Village in Boston was the pioneer and is our model. In Washington DC, the Capitol Hill, Dupont Circle, Palisades, and Pennsylvania Avenue East neighborhoods have also formed villages.

The IRS has designated NNV as a 501(c)(3), organization making all donations tax-deductible.
