Stanford Settlement Neighborhood Center

Stanford Settlement Neighborhood Center is a private, nonprofit social service agency. Founded in 1936, our mission is to help build healthy communities through individual, family, and neighborhood services. As a settlement house, our agency is concerned with helping individuals make improvements to their own lives AND their community. Residents of Gardenland Northgate, North Sacramento, Del Paso Heights, and Natomas are eligible to use agency programs.

Our agency has been an anchor for those in need in our community for nearly 90 years. Your support of Stanford Settlement Neighborhood Center makes this work possible.
