Our 2009 Annual Report
In 2008, in an effort to be a greener agency, Neighborhood House produced its first-ever electronic annual report. We've continued that commitment to more eco-friendly publications with our 2009 annual report, created by Rocket Dog Communications. To review the 2009 Annual Report, click here.

Welcome to Neighborhood House
The mission of Neighborhood House is to help diverse communities of people with limited resources attain their goals for self-sufficiency, financial independence, health and community building.
From our earliest beginnings serving Jewish immigrants in the 1900s to our work today with people from numerous countries and cultures, Neighborhood House has helped generations of families fulfill the promise of America — an education for their children, self-sufficiency for their families and a meaningful place in a caring community.
Our case workers, teachers, volunteers and tutors (many of whom are bilingual) work in neighborhoods across King County. We provide tutoring, citizenship classes, Head Start and Early Head Start programs, job training, case management, community health programs and transportation to more than 11,000 low-income people each year.

Tutoring center brings learning alive for boy
Seven-year-old Ruvim Tochinskiy wrinkles his face in concentration as he tries to solve math problems with the help of a volunteer tutor. Somehow he's able to resist the distraction of his talkative older brother, Andriy.
The boys, part of a Ukrainian immigrant family of 10, seem happy to spend their afterschool hours in one of Neighborhood House's youth tutoring centers in Auburn.
"I don't think he's missed a day since the new year started," the program coordinator says. "At first he was hesitant. Now he's used to the routine. After doing his homework, he grabs a book and starts to read."
