When temperatures climb closer to 100°F, life on the streets can go from unbearable to deadly. When the predicted heat index reaches 95°F or higher, the City of New York declares a “CODE RED”. During a Code Red, the BronxWorks Homeless Outreach Team will be working hard to help our most vulnerable neighbors get off the streets and into shelter.
Designated cooling centers are open during a CODE RED all around New York City and the Bronx. If you are living without air conditioning and need a place to cool down contact 311 or click here to find a cooling center near you. Please check on your neighbors, especially the elderly and sick. Cooling centers are open and available to the public. More info

The BronxWorks Children and Youth Department held our second annual Prom and Graduation Clothing Giveaway Event for middle school and high school seniors! Over 80 students and their families attended the event at the Carolyn McLaughlin Community Center.
Each Student took home a dress or suit of their choice, and everyone was gifted a goodie bag with cosmetic and personal care items to prepare for these milestone events! Parents also had the opportunity to choose clothing for themselves for upcoming graduation ceremonies!
Thank you to everyone in the BronxWorks community who donated clothing and accessories to the Prom and Graduation Drive! Special thanks to the Administration for Children’s Services, who co-sponsored the event and helped students make their clothing choices alongside BronxWorks staff.
