photoNeighborhood Centers of Johnson County is dedicated to building a better future for people in neighborhoods through programs and activities that educate, strengthen families and create a sense of community.

Our goal at Neighborhood Centers of Johnson County is to strengthen families and neighborhoods and improve the quality of life for the community.  Our approach to human services, while not new, is a bit different from many human service agencies.  Most agencies are driven by a specific issue, problem or the needs of a demographic subgroup.  Our mission, on the other hand, is driven by the needs and interests of the families in our neighborhoods.
