Archway Housing and Services is a nonprofit organization that builds and manages affordable housing communitieds for low-income families and individuals. We also provide on site, free social services for our residents, including adult education classes, community events, and youth enrichment programing.
We are currently looking for a Youth Art Teacher to teach an art class one day a week after school from 4:30 - 5:30 pm on Thursdays. There are about 10-15 elementary and middle school students who participate in our afterschool programing. Many of our students are immigrants or refugees from African countries, so we would ask for a volunteer who is comfortable working with people from other cultures.
Archway is a wonderful organization that is committed to helping the most needy in our communities! Please consider donating your time and talent to help youth expand their education through art! Thank you for your consideration.

Mission Statement
Archway Communities elevates lives by providing access to affordable housing, food security and the supportive social services people need to thrive.
Description
Archway Communities was founded with the belief that affordable housing is a crucial element in building healthy communities. In pursuit of that belief, we seek opportunities to purchase vacant land for new construction or renovate obsolete multifamily developments. Shortly after we were founded, we began to recognize that residents need more than affordable housing to stabilize their lives - many were struggling with challenges like food insecurity, recovering from chronic homelessness, unemployment, single parenting, obtaining citizenship, and others. Archway Communities instituted the Supportive Services Program- resident focused, on-site programming- to address the needs of those living in our communities beyond simply providing a roof over their heads.
