Lawmakers Honor North Penn’s Community Partners Center
for Health and Human Services
Services available from the North Penn Community Health
Foundation (NPCHF) and its partners at the new Health
and Human Services nonprofit office center in Colmar is
the focus of the November edition of Legislative Report
with Rep. Kate Harper (R-Montgomery).
The Community Partners Center for Health and Human Services
is home to NPCHF staff and six other nonprofit organizations
that provide health and human services to local residents.
It is the first center of its kind in the state and was
designed to meet platinum standards for “green buildings.”
In recognition of those accomplishments, Harper and fellow
Montgomery County lawmakers, Reps. Bob Godshall, Jay Moyer
and Rick Taylor, presented NPCHF with a resolution adopted
by the state House in September.
The center was created to provide a professional workplace
that supports the essential role of local nonprofit organizations
and enhances local access to programs and services. Other
nonprofit agencies now located at the center include:
Carson Valley Children’s Aid, Northwestern Human
Services of Montgomery County, Jaisohn Center, Women’s
Center of Montgomery County, Health Promotion Council
of Southeastern PA and North Penn YMCA.
During the 30-minute program, Harper talks with Russell
Johnson, president and CEO of NPCHF, about the value of
the center to both nonprofit organizations and their clients.
She also talks with representatives of the other nonprofit
agencies housed in the building about the services they
provide.
