Ken and Michele Buono, Associate Director of Programs at Goddard Riverside Community Center, co-presented  on the Settlement House Advantage survey. The survey, developed by UNH agency Associate Executive Directors in partnership with Dr. Mimi Abramovitz, the Reynolds Professor of Social Policy at Hunter College, is designed to explore the impact of the settlement house model of providing services and strengthening communities, and assess the extent to which program participants do and do not experience or benefit from it.
