The Founders of Uniondale Community Council and the subsequent dedicated teams of Directors have a dream. It is simply this:
We want every youth in Uniondale to grow up in an atmosphere which nourishes their favorable development, where every senior citizen feels secure, where every homeowner is certain they made a wise decision and where every businessperson benefits from a thriving, prosperous community.
MAJOR GOALS:
*Providing youth services
*Fostering and maintaining good neighborly relations within the community
*Promoting community beautification
*Encouraging jointly-planned strategic community development
*Developing family workshops
*Tutoring for and with the young
*Assisting young and older residents in finding jobs in the community
*Supporting local business
*Promoting increased services to the people of Uniondale
