1) To feel good about being involved. Everyone plays a part in the community in which they live. The ACA can help you play a stronger part by educating you on candidates running for office, fundraising for things like the Edmondson branch of the Enoch Pratt Free Library, sharing when the latest community clean-ups are taking place, or even filling your social calendar with fun community events.
2) To get answers. The ACA is here to help with everything from when trash days are to how to contact your elected officials to upcoming proposed developments in the area. As your community voice, we’re in the know and look forward to sharing vital community information with you.
3) To make a difference. Good things don’t just happen. People make them happen. As a member of the ACA, you can learn about a variety of volunteer opportunities that enable you to share your time and talent with the neighborhood.
4) To be represented. In order to effectively accomplish our goals and serve as a voice for the community, we need to have representation from across our community.
5) To network. The ACA is comprised of neighbors of all ages and walks of life. Get to know people in your community through events and meetings.

It is the home to the Gwynns Falls Trail and Leakin Park, which together comprise more than 1,000 acres —one of the larger urban wilderness preserves in the United States. The Southwestern District is also home to the historical 300-acre Loudon Park Cemetery, where Union and Confederate graves are located on opposite hills.
