Neighborhood House History
The origins of Neighborhood House date back to the late 1880's in San
Diego County, when it operated primarily as a settlement house,
assisting Hispanic and other immigrant families to become acclimated
to the mainstream community. In 1914, the San Diego Normal School's
College Women's Club, now knows as San Diego State University's
American Association of University women, operated the agency and
named it Neighborhood House. (This is considered our anniversary
year.) Neighborhood House, with other organizations such as the Red
Cross, YMCA, and Boy Scouts, became a charter member of the local
Community Chest in 1920. The Community Chest is known today as the
United Way of San Diego. In 1923, Neighborhood House was incorporated
as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, and has grown steadily to
become the far-reaching community service organization it is today.
