Mission

The mission of Greenwich House is to help individuals and families lead more fulfilling lives by offering social and health services, cultural and educational programs, and opportunities for civic involvement to New Yorkers of all ages and backgrounds.

Vision

As was true with Greenwich House’s founders in 1902, we, its board and staff, are dedicated to improving the quality of life of the individuals and families who make up the communities we serve and who need our services. We welcome New Yorkers from all segments of society, regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation, race, ethnicity, and religion. We offer flexible and responsive services that address a wide variety of contemporary challenges—early childhood education, drug and alcohol abuse, mental health, services for people living with HIV/AIDS, ceramic arts education, musical enrichment, elder care and senior social activities. Our professionally trained staff is committed to maintaining excellence in our programs and the personal service we provide.
