Norris Square Neighborhood Project

Updated 10/16/2019

Norris Square Neighborhood Project promotes positive change through youth education, community leadership, green spaces, the arts and the celebration of Latino culture. NSNP envisions a community where youth and adults can positively engage one another, promote cultural awareness and preservation, and advocate for a healthier future for their neighborhoods. NSNP aspires to connect generations and use their space to enable youth and community members to be the change-makers in their lives and the lives of their families.

Volunteers provide critical support for our youth and garden programming. They are able to help us provide services in our community in a variety of areas including: carpentry, technology support, skilled garden volunteers, event support, carpentry and garden infrastructure.

The Center for Culture, Art, Training and Education (CCATE) is dedicated to empowering the Hispanic community in the greater Montgomery County area in PA through the promotion of culture, art, education, and work training.

CCATE searches strategically to open multi-disciplinary programs that support four key sectors of a successful community: culture, art, training, and education that will empower the Latino community to make their dreams come true through the holistic development of the community. At CCATE there are a wide range of volunteer opportunities. Tasks range from technology room assistance to mentoring bright students, “whatever your skills, it is certain you can contribute simply as existing as a part of CCATE’s community” (quoted from the CCATE website).
