Our Mission
& Vision
Jamieson Community Center's mission is to coordinate programs addressing the needs of all ages, provide services which extend widely into the community and surrounding area, and work in cooperation with the social service agencies in the region.
Our vision is that Jamieson Community Center leads a collaborative effort to unify people through compassion, kindness and service.
We are a non-profit community center that strives to provide social services to Monmouth and the surrounding areas. We were founded in 1965 following the merging of four area churches.
JCC is named after Rev. Jamieson who was responsible for the vision of Jamieson Community Center and was one of our early founders.

To better serve our community, we are moving the food pantry selection area into our thrift store. Too often, people start the conversation with an apology for using our pantry. We have had many conversations over the years about removing this stigma. Choice is the best practice and our current pantry space is too small to make that happen. In our new space, guests will “shop” and bring their items to the checkout where we will bag them and complete paperwork.
Our “thrifters” can expect the same great deals and finds. Our pantry visitors can choose their food and supplies with dignity and respect.
Thank you for your patience as we work through the logistics of redesigning our space, JCC Community Marketplace.
