IDEA statement:

When one of us succeed, we all succeed!

Neighborhood House is on a mission to becoming a multi-cultural, anti-racist agency. We are achieving this by sharing power, listening and learning from each other and our communities and working to repair past inequities. We are building a culture where equity is the foundation, inclusiveness is a reflex not an initiative and access for marginalized communities is the norm.

Here at Neighborhood House our vision, mission and values are our guiding lights. As individuals, here at NH we care deeply about community, and about people experiencing poverty. We are individually and collectively committed to disrupting systemic social patterns that promote poverty, such as racism, sexism, heterosexism and cis-genderism.
