East Side House Settlement

This past weekend, East Side House Settlement partnered with The WVI Dolphin Foundation, Hydro-Québec, and Champlain Hudson Power Express for the Leadership + Mentorship Program Module: Civics in Action.
 
Through engaging discussions on leadership, civic responsibility, and community engagement, participants explored what it means to create positive change - and then put those lessons into action by packing and distributing food to community members in need.
Thank you to our partners for helping empower the next generation of leaders while strengthening the communities we proudly serve.

Opportunity starts with connection. Last week, East Side House hosted a successful Community Job Fair at our Mitchel Community Center, bringing together job seekers, employers, and community partners committed to growth and opportunity.
Attendees explored career paths, met program directors, signed up for workforce development workshops, and sharpened their skills through mock interviews — all while taking meaningful steps toward their goals. 💼
We’re proud to invest in our community’s future and remain committed to creating pathways to success.

🎓✨ East Side House students had an incredible opportunity to explore their futures during visits to Emmanuel College and Wentworth Institute of Technology in Boston!
