    Friendly House Seeks a Chief Program Officer

    About Us

    Founded in 1920, Friendly House’s mission is to provide for the “Educational, social and family betterment of the residents of the City of Worcester.’ Begun as a small three-room Settlement House, it continues to respond immediately to the needs of community residents, providing a safety net in their lives. The Settlement House, an approach to social reform with roots in the late 19th century and the Progressive Movement, was a method for serving immigrants and the poor in urban areas by living among them and serving them directly. This philosophy remains the core of Friendly House’s programming approach and culture.

    Friendly House today has eight locations across Worcester where it provides a multitude of services for the entire family, nuclear and extended, to meet the need for immediate crisis stabilization, food, housing, and other social services. Youth programs include after-school, teen, basketball, and summer day camp. State and federal funding support housing for over 100 homeless families at a time, including emergency shelter, transitional, and permanent supportive housing. Lunch meals and snacks are prepared for children and for many other youth serving agencies in the community.
