The Standish-Ericsson Neighborhood Association (SENA) is incorporated in the state of Minnesota as a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt non-profit organization.  We serve the Standish and Ericsson neighborhoods located in south Minneapolis. 

The agency is governed by a Board of Directors which meets monthly (on the second Monday of the month).  Directors are elected at the annual meeting in September by the “membership” which, according to our by-laws is: 

those defined by Minn. Stat. §317A.441, (b), (c) and (d).  Members with voting rights are individuals who, at a meeting of the neighborhood organization, can produce:

 

(1)  A Minnesota driver’s license, Minnesota identification card, or some form of residency verification which indicates the individual resides within the geographic boundaries of the neighborhood organization

 (2) Proof of ownership or lease of a business or property or proof of being employed by a nonprofit organization, business, or government entity located within the geographic boundaries of SENA.

We are a volunteer driven organization, so resident involvement is essential to our work.  Click on the link to the left for more information about volunteer opportunities.
