“
We envision Seneca-Babcock and the surrounding neighborhoods to continue as a thriving community with a proud history, where people are informed, connected, engaged, and empowered to shape their future. To realize this vision, the Seneca-Babcock Community Association serves as the growing comprehensive transitional aged youth center in Buffalo, where youth and young adults learn together and become change agents for the community.
