About Us
Our mission
At Southside Community Center, we’re more than just a building—we’re the heart of Spokane’s Southside neighborhood. Our mission is simple: to create a welcoming space where everyone feels valued and supported. As a nonprofit organization, we’re dedicated to offering educational programs, resources, and activities that enrich the lives of our community members.
For decades, we’ve been a place where friendships are formed, skills are learned, and connections are made. From seniors looking for companionship and activities, to families seeking resources, and individuals eager to give back, Southside Community Center is here to serve.
We believe in the power of community and the impact that comes from working together. Whether you’re here to participate in one of our many programs, volunteer your time, or simply find a sense of belonging, you’re always welcome at Southside.
Join us, and let’s continue to build a stronger, more connected Spokane—one person, one program, and one act of kindness at a time.
