Freedom House is a nonprofit, community-based organization with a decades long history of service to the community. Our mission is to promote the long-term, sustainable economic and social development of Boston’s communities of color.

Who We Are

'It may very well be that the work of Freedom House will never be done. Yet, it is our deepest hope that as long as there is need, there will always be dedicated, committed people who will continue to respond. For us personally, the greatest gift of all would be the assurance that Freedom House will stand for years to come as a respected community institution, a symbol of hope and inspiration and a medium for bringing together all people who care about this and future generations.'
     - Otto & Muriel Snowden, Founders

'In our long journey for justice, we have struggled but assuredly we have persevered. We have fought for the cause of social justice and our commitment today is no less. Freedom House is strong, vibrant and ready to take action. We recognize the persistent inequities in society, and invite all committed to creating a more just society to join us in this journey.'
     - Ricardo Neal, MSW, Executive Director
