Commitment to Helping

Our commitment to working with street homeless individuals is decades long. In 1981 we opened one of the first drop-in centers for homeless people in Manhattan. Men and women went there for a meal, a shower and support to find housing and health care.

In 2007, CUCS founded the Manhattan Outreach Consortium with our partners Goddard Riverside and Breaking Ground, in an effort to help the growing number of people living on the streets.
