WE ARE HERE TO HELP!
Helping people has always been at the heart of Friendly House. For over 119 years, we have assisted individuals and families. Today, we continue our mission of being a resource for people in our neighborhoods. As a vital part of this community, Friendly House has sought to provide programs that are affordable, accessible and build on the unique qualities that all individuals possess. Our programs are grounded in the belief and practice of meeting very basic needs and offering enrichment opportunities.
We are often blessed to have relationships with our participants throughout their lifetime: providing them with daycare or after school services as a child, family services or activities as an adult, and senior activities later in life.
Program Areas Include:
Youth
Families
Seniors
Child & Adult Care Food Program (CACFP)
Preschool & Childcare Scholarship
