Sweet Home New Orleans (SHNO) is a non-profit organization dedicated to revitalizing the music and cultural community within the neighborhoods of New Orleans by helping our tradition bearers secure stable, affordable housing.

SHNO is a collaboration of service providers that connects New Orleans musicians, Mardi Gras Indians, and Social Aid & Pleasure Club members to an array of resources. I spoke with some of the founding members of SHNO and some of the people the organization has helped.
