Community Building

Since our founding in 1895, Hudson Guild has served a primary role in making the Chelsea neighborhood a place where people come together to help others and themselves through education, skills-building, and joint action.

A place where people can come together to help others and themselves through education, skills-building, and joint action.

The Neighborhood Advisory Committee (NAC)

NAC is a group of representatives from Hudson Guild's programs, New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) resident associations, and community members. NAC advises Guild staff and Trustees on the issues and needs of the Chelsea community, develops knowledge and skills necessary for greater civic involvement, and builds alliances between diverse community constituencies.
