HISTORY

In 1986, when flood ravaged portions of the North Hills, local leaders, organizations, and congregations began working together to assist flood victims. This effort mobilized the community to action, and matched the resources being offered by local groups, businesses and individuals to meet the needs of affected families. As a result, NHCO was incorporated in 1987 as an organization of "People Helping People."


PROFESSIONAL STAFF
