Queens Community House (QCH) is a multi-site, multi-service settlement house that serves the diverse neighborhoods of Queens. We serve residents of all ages, races, faiths, and ethnicities while supporting the viability of the borough as a whole.

QCH was formed in 1975 (as Forest Hills Community House) to help heal the wounds of a neighborhood conflict. Over four decades, our reach and breadth have grown; today we offer a broad network of comprehensive services at 25 program sites in 11 different neighborhoods in Queens, allowing us to impact individuals, families, and entire communities.

Queens Community House is recruiting volunteers for our Friendly Visiting program, a program that matches home bound older adults aged 60+, with volunteers for weekly visiting to help reduce isolation and loneliness among older adults in our community.

Friendly Visiting volunteers must be aged 18 and over, provide 2 non-related references, commit to 6 months of volunteerism, and consent to a background check.

The schedule is flexible. (We can work around your availability!)

If you enjoy playing chess and are available for weekly visits, contact us today! We'd love to have you!
