Houston Heights Association
The work that keeps the Heights its best self — volunteer committees, civic programs, and regular meetings open to every neighbor.
Get Involved
Every committee, every event, every clean-up Saturday is organized by neighbors who give their time because they care about where they live. There is no professional staff running these programs — it's all volunteer, all community.
Whether you want to join a standing committee, help with a single event, or just show up and pitch in, there's a place for you. Contact the committee chair that interests you or reach out to the HHA directly.
Volunteer
Sign up to volunteer with the HHA and we'll match you with opportunities that fit your interests and availability — from one-time events to ongoing committees.
