The Queens Community House is a settlement house founded in 1974 to assist, strengthen, and help improve the quality of life of individuals, families, and communities. Today, our 16 program areas reach over 20,000 people throughout Queens. Our 18 sites serve as centers for community gathering, organizing, and social service activity, while our programs work to promote inter-generational and cross-cultural cooperation and exchange. In addition, the Community House works with other organizations in networks and coalitions to advocate for and provide services borough wide.
