Mission Statement
Northwestern Settlement helps low-income families and individuals take personal responsibility, explore opportunities and options, and become or remain self-sufficient by providing a central point around which social and specialized service, education, arts, and collaborative programs can be accessed. The Settlement equips its neighbors with the tools they need to succeed. Our entire program is based upon the concept of individual and family self-help and the underlying philosophy that every person deserves to maximize his or her potential to become a productive member of society.About Us
