West Side Community House (WSCH) works to meet the needs of community residents by providing an array of model programs and services for children, families and older adults.

Programs/Services for Youth:
Our programs and services for youth include out-of-school time programs such as Sisterhood (a mentoring program for 10 - 18 year old girls), Boys Council (a pro-social group for 13 – 18 year old boys that encourages healthy coping skills and effective communication) and Summer of Sisterhood (an eight-week summer arts camp for girls ages 10 - 18).

Programs/Services for Seniors:
West Side Community House provides a full array of programs and services for older adults. These services include home delivered and congregate meals, transportation, and a variety of educational, recreational, and health and wellness activities. Additional services may be found online at http://www.wschouse.org/index.php/seniors/.

Programs/Services for Families:
West Side Community House Family Services include information and referrals, support services and groups, family engagement, unsupervised visitation, wraparound, education and recreational programs for west side families.

West Side Community House services are open to all social, racial, ethnic and income groups but are targeted to those who are most vulnerable and at-risk. Our programs strengthen the family, provide opportunities to learn and grow, support independent living, encourage economic self-sufficiency, and renew the life spirit.
