Hospitality and Safety
The North Broad Renaissance is creating a layered approach to hospitality and safety, recognizing that the two go hand and hand. It includes implementing focused programming that will enhance safety and address the issues of mental illness, trauma, and homelessness, all while ensuring we provide a friendly and welcoming environment for the North Broad community.
“The NBR believes in a layered approach to community hospitality, considers a diverse set of needs, and includes a continuum approach and a behind the scene support system.”

They provide check-ins with local businesses, and help us ensure that the corridor is well-maintained and welcoming. Their many responsibilities include:
