More about Ross Community Center
What do we do?
The Ross community Center builds community by providing and prmoting programs, services and activities for the advancement of education, health and wellness.
A little bit about us.
Today, Ross community Center, Inc. Is at a pivotal moment. It has survived "start-up" challenges as it has transitioned from a city-operated recreational facility to an independent non-profit organization through the dedication and persistence of a handful of volunteers. We have kept the doors open and the dream alive to establish a safe, welcoming, neutral haven in one of the state's most hard-pressed neighborhoods.
We continue to build relationships and establish partnerships with our Community agencies, organizations, individuals and groups to find ways to effectively and efficiently provide high-quality programs and events for little to no cost.
