Erie Neighborhood House is a social service agency that works primarily with low-income, immigrant families in Chicago, Illinois. Operations began in 1870 as a ministry of Holland Presbyterian Church, a Protestant congregation located northwest of Chicago's Loop, and the organization quickly became part of the settlement house movement that emerged in the late 19th century. It currently offers programs and services from four locations—two in Chicago's West Town community area, a third in Little Village, and fourth at Erie Elementary Charter School in East Humboldt Park—to a population characterized as predominantly Latino. == Mission and Core Values == The mission of Erie Neighborhood House is "to promote a just and inclusive society by strengthening low-income, primarily Latino families through skill-building, access to critical resources, advocacy and collaborative action."〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://eriehouse.org/page/learn-about-us )〕 Its core values include: * Affirming the dignity and capacity of all persons to reach their fullest potential * Strengthening the voice of the disenfranchised * Embodying a spirit of service and respect * Promoting social change by forging creative solutions 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Erie Neighborhood House」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
