Our three transitional housing sites—two in Queens and one soon to open in Manhattan—serve asylum-seekers arriving to NYC, and to people at risk of homelessness.

These residential buildings are a place where residents can feel safe, receive resources and support, and get connected to community.

These programs provide:

  • Housing
  • Case Management Services
  • Meals
  • Referral & connection for health care, childcare, legal support, workforce development, and more
  • Support throughout the asylum application process for those who need it

We work closely with organizations throughout New York City to provide services to our tenants.
