About Us
read moreIn January 2017, the BHFH Board of Managers approved a bold Strategic Plan for the next three years of the Friends House. The plan is summarized in the slides below, and may be read in full here: BHFH Strategic Plan. The Board of Managers meets four times a year to provide oversight for the work of the House and to assist in the operations of the house. It is comprised of local Friends, two residents of the House, a representative from Beacon Hill Friends Meeting, alumni and others who care about the organization.
Residential Community
read moreBeacon Hill Friends House operates a cooperative residence for people interested in community living. Since 1957, between 18 and 22 people each year have made a home here based on Quaker principles of faith, simplicity, integrity, community, and social responsibility. Residents work together to maintain the House, serve meals, and plan events. Mutual respect, honest communication, and enlivened engagement with our differences are hallmarks of our community. There is no one word or phrase that neatly describes the people who live at the House.
