About Us

Our Mission

Riverdale Neighborhood House, a settlement house in the northwest Bronx, provides human services, pioneering programs and a broad spectrum of educational and community resources to children, teens, seniors and families from all socioeconomic backgrounds. Responsive to the ever-changing needs of a multicultural population, RNH serves as a center for community outreach and addresses the needs of individuals and families at every stage of life.

Our Values

At Riverdale Neighborhood House, we believe:

  • That all lives are enriched by participation in a compassionate and supportive community
  • That the enduring strength of our RNH community relies on cultivating a spirit of neighborliness and mutual respect among diverse populations
  • That RNH should work to bring groups and individuals together as an inclusive community
  • That families require lifelines of support and benefit from community services and programs responsive to their needs
  • That children and their families from all socioeconomic backgrounds should have equal access to quality early childhood programs
  • That children and teens should have a safe environment for their development in order to foster positive social interactions
  • That seniors, including the homebound elderly, need and deserve to be valued as individuals who are important to the fabric of community life
  • That an effective settlement house must continually evolve and adapt to the ever-changing needs of its community
