Programs
Program 1 [2018]
QCH is a multi-service, community-based organization whose mission is to provide individuals and families with the tools to enrich their lives and build healthy, inclusive communities. QCH programs are in some of New York City's most racially and ethnically diverse communities, with high concentrations of low-income, working poor and new immigrant or first generation Americans. QCH serves residents of all ages, races and ethnicities while supporting the viability of neighborhoods and Queens as a whole. Our 29 sites serve as centers for community-building, leadership development, and social service provision. In particular, we work to address the needs of: Children & Youth: QCH works within 17 NYC public schools to develop programs that support student learning, provide access to arts and STEM content, curb dropout rates, and help struggling students to achieve a high school diploma. A college-going culture is incorporated within all of our youth programs, and more than 3,000 young people receive college, career, and employment counseling from us every year. Families: Each year, QCH helps more than 1,000 families avoid evictions from their home, and we work with tenants, landlords, and homeowners to ensure ongoing neighborhood safety and stability. Older Adults: We serve more than 6,000 seniors annually, providing access to public benefits, home delivered meals, and opportunities for health, education and socialization. Our programs help older adults to maintain their independence and dignity during their later years and, for those who choose, to remain in their homes. Immigrants: Last year, we assisted more than 1800 immigrants on their path to English literacy and U.S. citizenship, while helping to become engaged and contributing neighbors in their new home. LGBT Community: LGBTQ youth find care, support and acceptance through our Generation Q program, while LGBT older adults gather at our warm and welcoming Queens Center for Gay Seniors. These programs are just two examples of how we work to help marginalized individuals or groups feel accepted and included in the greater community.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2017 – Jun 30, 2018Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$17MCommunity Support and Development
