NCJW NY operates out of Council House, our vibrant multi-service community center located in the heart of the Upper West Side. Council House is a safe haven for needy New Yorkers from all walks of life. For our volunteers, Council House serves as a hub for community action and engagement.

Our ground floor café hosts our Food Pantry and Community Kitchen as well as other NCJW NY events and programs. Council Lifetime Learning (CLL) art classes, exercise classes, theater classes, and discussion groups all take place on the second and fourth floors. Our third floor conference room serves as a meeting space for support groups and other NCJW NY groups.
