Community Matters: May 2026

Our latest Community Matters newsletter highlights the many ways community grows when neighbors come together.

• Students from PS 201Q connected with staff and members of the Pomonok Community Center through a hands-on day of gardening, healthy cooking, and learning—planting seeds of knowledge, wellness, and community.
• Nearly 200 young women, families, and community members gathered at our Forest Hills Community Center for the 27th Annual Youth Leadership Conference, where New York City Council Finance Chair Linda Lee inspired attendees with a powerful message about leadership, perseverance, and finding your voice.
• And in our latest Meet Your Neighbor feature, volunteer Shabana shares how giving back through QCH has helped her build friendships, stay active, and remain connected to her community.
