Richmond Community Services Foundation Inc

Our Story

Richmond Community Services began in 1938 when Ellen Richmond, a compassionate nurse, took home babies with developmental disabilities from Mt. Vernon Hospital. This act of kindness inspired the community to form the Richmond Children’s Center. In 1973, the organization moved to the former New York Cardiac Center in Yonkers, expanding its mission to support adults with developmental disabilities. Today, Richmond Community Services operates 15 group homes, two day programs, and one large residential facility, all while maintaining the warmth and dedication that Ellen Richmond exemplified.
