]KHCC’s mission is to build on the strengths of residents in our diverse community, enabling them to effect change and improve the quality of their own lives and those of their families and their community.
Description and/or History:
KHCC was founded in 1974 and celebrating its 35th anniversary. KHCC is a growing organization that assists more than 8,000 residents each year with services and programs for all ages. Our expanded geographic area includes Community Districts 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 in the North and Central Bronx, with some programs offered borough-wide. Our programs are guided by the settlement house model of community development and involvement. We believe that, despite the challenges of poverty and unemployment, residents have the ability to create a brighter future. KHCC remains a truly community-based organization, with programs anchored in a detailed knowledge of the people and issues of the Bronx. Likewise, the community retains a high level of ownership and involvement in our work.
