HOW WILL WE ACHIEVE OUR MISSION
Neighbourhoods Without Borders wants to assist with the beautiful rebuild, removing the negativity from scars, stigmas and stereotypes and lifting burdens of the past. As such, our mission will be achieved via programs and developmental opportunities including, but not limited to:
1. Countermeasures for gun violence and crime prevention
2. Unifying our fractured communities with accessible facilities, qualified support staff in educating the youths, youths at risk and LGBTQ2s+ to be empowered for a successful present and future.

WHAT MAKES US UNIQUE
There are three critical factors we at Neighbourhoods Without Borders believe makes us unique. We are;
1. Working to aggressively pursue and ensure the implementation of the Black offenders social history and ethnocultural rights in legislation. Living in marginalized and vulnerable neighbourhoods is factor that contributes to criminal activity
2. Introducing habilitation, the shaping and instilling of new alternatives for BIPOC youth
3. Offering specialized yet diverse initiatives that have been developed and are managed by subject matter experts to service our community members
