Text related to public-benefit organisations
This term is taken from a list of types of foundations. I get the impression from what I have read on the end that it some kind of recovery facility for people who have been ill.
'Afectados por enfermedades o discapacidades, benéfico-asistenciales y laborales,casa regionales,culturales, juveniles y deportivas.'
Difficult to give more context and it taken from a table

lodge
At least in the US, many of the organizations of the type described in the Wikipedia article on "casa regional" are called "lodges." Here is one example:

if you wanted to be a bit more specific, you could use "ethnic heritage lodges."

regional associative centres
Wikipedia: Basque centers are associative organizations that appeared in the end of the 19th century in cities that have really an important presence of Basque emigration, with the purpose of helping each other and keeping links with Basque culture and homeland. They are also meeting points for the Basque people who live all around the world far away from their land.

Might even be better. Associative is a slightly unusual word. Thanks!

regional associations
Or regional centres (Andalusian Centre gets more general hits).
I wasn't originally going to post this, as it's almost the same as patinba's suggestion. Places like the Casa de Andalucia or el Centro Andaluz here in Valencia and other places are usually just referred to as the Andalusian Association or Centre.
Pax Robert, they are a bit like lodges, but where I come from lodges are mainly associated with Masonic activities, so it'd be lower down on my list of options.

regional cultural center
Spain is made up of 17 comunidades autónomas, which are often generically known as regiones. Historically, people from the poorer regions emigrated to big cities such as Madrid and Barcelona in search of work. There, these internal immigrants would band together and set up a casa regional, where they could meet, celebrate regional holidays, hold dinners, etc.
Hence, you might talk about the Andalusian regional cultural center in Madrid, etc.

Example sentence:
Last weekend we attended a concert of flamenco music and dance at the Andalusian cultural center in Madrid.
Discussion
I belong to one in my city. It's called the Deutsches Haus- I'm not German, but it's a good place to get cheap German food and beer, and they run social activities.
