Agency Overview
History
ECDB is a community-based non-profit corporation that
serves the residents of northern New Jersey. In 1975,
local neighborhood leaders who were concerned with the
community’s living environment established the agency
with the intention to improve the quality of life of
their neighborhood and expand access to services to all
in the city of Newark. El Club del Barrio, Inc. [ECDB]
of today has inherited the belief that strong families
make strong communities; thus, our duty is to help
families who are underserved, or lack access to
supportive services, become self-sufficient so that
together we can help rebuild our neighborhood. Newark
residents continue to look to the agency as a
traditional community based social service provider and
safe haven for all people.
Mission
ECDB’s mission to is to provide quality, science-based,
client-centered social and behavioral healthcare
services that prevent disease and improve the quality of
life for individuals and families in these communities.
Population Served
ECDB serves families with children, young adults, women,
men, seniors, HIV+/AIDS affected individuals along with
their heterosexual and same-sex partners, and persons
with disabilities. ECDB hopes to catalyze progressive
sustainable changes in the quality of life of Newark’s
families and their children. El Club delivers services
through program units that target specific populations.
These are Children and Youth Services, Women and Family
Services, HIV Prevention and Direct Services and
Behavioral Healthcare Services.
