For over 20 years, QCH has helped young people bridge the gap between high school and adulthood. To meet the needs of graduates navigating college, training, or the workforce, we created the College & Career Pathways program.
"I first heard about Queens Community House in 2015, when my church shared flyers about English classes, housing help, and immigration services. Parishioners were already going to QCH, and I saw how valuable those resources were. That’s when I began to learn about this wonderful organization.
In the 1990s, Queens became the most ethnically diverse county in the U.S., as major waves of immigrants from Latin America, Asia, and the former Soviet Union transformed neighborhoods like Jackson Heights, Corona, and Forest Hills into thriving multicultural hubs.
"When I first came to Queens Community House in 1986, childcare wasn’t on my radar. I was a social work intern, focused on housing. But when I graduated in 1987, my supervisor, Irma Rodriguez, encouraged me to stay and help develop a network for family daycare providers.
Queens Community House brinda a las personas y las familias las herramientas para enriquecer sus vidas y construir comunidades saludables e inclusivas.
