How you help We are grateful to the many individuals, companies and organizations that have given their time and resources showing our youth and their families that someone cares. We rely heavily on the generosity of our volunteers to carry out our programs and services.
About us One of Boston’s original historic settlement houses, the South Boston Neighborhood House was founded in 1901 with a mission ‘to support family and neighborhood life in South Boston.’ Affectionately known as “the Ollie” after founder, Olivia James, the Neighborhood House is best known for the deep ties and connections among participants and families that have endured for generations and the historic welcome and investment in South Boston’s immigrant populations and other new residents that continues to this day. The South Boston Neighborhood House is the oldest continually operating human service agency in South Boston, and the community’s only independent multi-service provider. As an independent and stand-alone agency, South Boston Neighborhood House can be flexible, rapid in our response to community needs and at the forefront of community issues. Today, SBNH impacts the lives of 2000 individuals each year from infants to nonagenarians. Our focus is families and our five program and service areas, Early Education & Care, School Age Programs, Youth Education & Career Development, Senior Programs and Family Engagement, are designed to work together to strengthen the fabric of family and community life through education and opportunity.
