Honoring JVC's History in Brooklyn, NY

By the JVC Community of Shirley Chisholm House

1979-2018, 2021-23

From 1979-2018 and 2021-23, 199 Jesuit Volunteers served with JVC in Brooklyn.

Entering the 2023-24 Program Year, JVC is pausing our presence in Brooklyn, but we are hopeful to return when our JV numbers increase.

Out of gratitude for the service of our Brooklyn FJVs and the wider JVC community that has supported them, we have set aside this space for reflections, photos, and tributes in celebration of Shirley Chisholm House.

If you have a story or photo from your time in the Brooklyn community, please email fjvs@jesuitvolunteers.org to add it to this page!
