Agency Details:

BFNC prepares, equips and empowers individuals to address life management issues, and to improve the quality of life in their communities.

Description:
The BFNC plays a major role in ensuring that anyone in Western New York who needs help and has no place to turn, or who has had trouble accessing services, or who has slipped through the cracks of the human service system, has a trusted place to go for help in taking the next step toward maximum independence.

History:
BFNC, Inc. was formed from the merger of two of Buffalo's settlement houses, Westminster Community House and the Neighborhood House Association (founded in 1893 and 1894, respectively).

Today, the agency carries on their rich tradition of service to the residents of Buffalo and Erie County. The BFNC's present structure is that of a human services conglomerate. Our regular programs now assist approximately 12,000 persons of diverse ages and needs each year. Additionally, nearly 3,000 individuals are helped through our community outreach projects and/or one-time contracts.
