The Needham Community Council is a private, multi-service, non-profit, 501(C) 3 agency responding to the diverse needs of Needham residents. The Council receives no public funding and depends on the generosity of the community to fulfill its mission: to extend hospitality to every Needham neighbor who turns to us for support. We provide short term emergency assistance of a non-medical nature to all ages within the Council's capabilities. In addition to our clothes closet and flea market, the Council helps Needham residents with a free medical-equipment loan closet, English as a 2nd Language tutoring, holiday outreach programs, medical appointment and around-town transportation, the CAP [Child Assault Prevention] Program in the town’s elementary schools; we are a sponsor of the Needham Suicide Prevention Coalition, and offer a variety of volunteer opportunities.
