Even though we became an independent nonprofit in 2012, we were founded by the Sisters of Saint Joseph of Rochester (SSJ), and much of their charism and compassion for the dear neighbor without distinction lives on today in our ethos.

This video from the Sisters of St. Joseph was shared this fall at their Sisters and Sprits Alive fundraiser, and we're glad to share it with you.
Watch the full video here: https://bit.ly/4pKLDii.

What the SSJ's have inspired - and continue still today - in our community is truly impactful, and we're glad to be a part of that.

As our Executive Director, Jen Sahrle, often says, "we stand on strong shoulders".

Happy Founders Day! Today we celebrate the vision and compassion that sparked St. Joseph's Neighborhood Center back in 1993. For over three decades, we've been committed to creating a healthier, more inclusive community by providing comprehensive health care and support services to those who need it most.

Thank you to our incredible volunteers, staff, and supporters who make this mission possible every day. A special thank you to our founding Sisters - Sr. Sharon Bailey, Sr. Sheila Briody, Sr. Donna DelSanto, Sr. Barbara Lum, Sr. Marilyn Pray, and Sr. Chris Wagner - who saw a need in the community and worked tirelessly to bridge the gap. Together, we continue to break down barriers and bring hope and healing to Rochester and beyond.

Join us in honoring our founders by sharing your favorite SJNC memory in the comments! 💜💜
