Project Home

Comprehensive Social Services, Eviction Prevention and Domestic Violence Assistance

Project Home is a unique, comprehensive case management program, helping formerly homeless and at-risk residents of the Lower East Side and Chinatown maintain their permanent housing, personal and financial stability, and family safety.

The Project's strength lies in its ability to help almost anyone within the community who walks through the door, with direct service or supported referrals. At a time when the safety net for those in need is increasingly complex and fragmented — making it especially difficult for this largely immigrant population to navigate — Project Home provides an invaluable, one-of-a-kind haven, where residents can be assured that all of their needs will be addressed in one place, compassionately and effectively.

Some 550 families and individuals take advantage of the Project's services each year, which include eviction prevention, employment guidance, individual and community advocacy, and assistance with issues such as domestic violence, government benefits, abuse and hunger. All services are provided without charge in the many languages of our multi-ethnic neighborhood. In addition, participants are fully engaged in the Project's extensive advocacy efforts on behalf of low-income residents throughout the community and New York City.
