About our group
The Jenkintown + Abington Neighbors Association organizes to support the vibrance of our area through walkable, safe streets and mobility for our citizens.
We began as a partnership between concerned neighbors in the areas surrounding the borders of Abington + Jenkintown who see the need for cross-collaboration between jurisdictions.
