About Us
The Monroe North Business Association (MNBA) serves to highlight this community by supporting neighborhood businesses and events, promoting interaction and communication among neighborhood businesses, media outreach, and partnering with local government to enhance safety, transportation, and beautification of the neighborhood.
Advocacy
We work closely with local government and take an active role in advancing the interests of the Monroe North community. Examples include evaluating proposed construction projects to support transit by bringing in the Downtown Area Shuttle (DASH), microtransit scooters, electric bicycles, and much more. The Monroe North Business Association is focused on and dedicated to improving the quality of life for visitors and residents.

We offer you highly visible sponsorship opportunities for popular events such as the Annual MNBA Picnic and ArtPrize. We are a warm, friendly group and we look forward to knowing you!
