About Us

The Outreach Center is a volunteer run community service organization. Our mission is to help ensure the local availability of human and social services by providing support and physical space for programs and services.

In addition to the programs listed at below, community and private use of the building is welcomed. Our building is or has been host to: Girl Scouts, North Creek Quilters, Baby’s Play place, tai chi, yoga and dance classes, TOPS, weddings, baby showers and more. Having a party, award ceremony or need meeting space? We have a large main room, small conference room for meetings of up to 12, and a comfortable counseling room. Call to reserve.

The Outreach Center has been able to maintain and grow this array of programs and services in part because of 100’s of volunteer hours, generous gifts and donations from all who support its work and the vision and leadership of the Board of Directors.
