At Central Community House, we believe in the power of community. It is our mission to empower people to reach their full potential, be self-supporting, and live cooperatively with others. We do this by building community that meets the needs and nourishes the creative aspirations of one another. Within our neighborhood-based community center, people of all ages come together to learn, play, share their gifts and find assistance when needed. From our public Computer Lab to monthly Community Dinners, services are designed to aid individuals in living self-sufficiently while adding to the overall quality of life in our neighborhood. We operate in the Near East neighborhood of Columbus, where nearly half of occupied households live below the Federal Poverty Line. Rather than simply address one problem or social condition, we build relationships and work holistically to combat the myriad effects of generational poverty. We have a long history of success offering free, comprehensive programming for youth, teens, artists, entrepreneurs, seniors, and families. We provide social work services, community organizing and advocacy, basic and emergency materials assistance and workforce development.
