Who we are

Shaw Butte Neighborhood Alliance is an award-winning all-volunteer neighborhood association and block watch which exists to represent and unite our community—homeowners, renters, apartment residents, and businesses alike.

Officially, our Neighborhood Boundaries are Cactus to Dahlia and 19th Ave to Cave Creek Park—but we work to represent and support residents in surrounding neighborhoods throughout our Area of Influence.

Our Core Values

community involvement

infrastructure improvement

public safety

What we want from you

DO GOOD in our community


Good neighbors make great neighborhoods.

Be friendly—say hello!

Keep it safe—if you see something, say something!

Do your part to keep things clean by picking up any litter or trash you see.

Participate in meetings & events


Your free time is valuable and we know you’re busy. Join us (whenever you can) for a meeting, or something fun like a Movie Night at the Park.

Tell us how you want to help


The Volunteer Connections Survey is an opportunity to tell us more about your skills and interests, and the ways you can contribute.

Tell us how we can help you


Whether it’s a pothole, broken sidewalk, blinking street light, or a request for some new activity in our local park—SBNA exists to maintain and improve our community. Working together with a unified voice can be more effective getting the assistance we need than any one single individual.

Let us know what needs fixing, or share your ideas for bettering our neighborhood.

Join the email list

We send a couple emails per month with meeting & event reminders, surveys, information about new city policies or initiatives, and other useful information.

If you’re unable to attend meetings, signing up for our emails is the best way to stay informed about the neighborhood.

When we all do something—no matter how small—the cumulative effect is a brighter future for our neighborhood and our city.
