Good Neighbor House - Health & Hunger Associate

Good Neighbor House is a faith-based nonprofit organization dedicated to serving individuals and families experiencing poverty, food insecurity, and housing instability. Our mission is to provide practical support, resources, and guidance while treating every person with dignity, respect, and hope. We serve the Dayton community, including low-income families, seniors on fixed incomes, and vulnerable adults, many of whom face multiple barriers such as unemployment, underemployment, limited access to healthcare, and social isolation. At GNH, we provide immediate assistance through food distribution, essential household items, and emergency support, while also addressing long-term needs through resource referrals, community partnerships, and programs that promote self-sufficiency. Our work is rooted in faith and compassion, emphasizing not only the physical needs of our neighbors but also the restoration of hope and opportunity.
