Penitencia Neighborhood of
Community-minded Residents
Penitencia Neighborhood Association is a group of concerned residents that have developed a solid sense of neighborhood community.

- Our focus is on crime, safety and quality of life issues that effect our neighborhood community.
- We are NOT strictly a virtual website. Rather, we are a collective group of “security and safety minded” individuals that occasionally meet "in-person" to:

(1) Know each other "face-to-face,"
(2) Proactively collaborate tactics to monitor and report to SJPD all suspected criminal activity occurring on Penitencia streets and courts, and
(3) Addressing issues having an effect on the "quality-of-life" in our neighborhood community.
