The BronxWorks Senior Homelessness Prevention Project (SHPP) helps low-income Bronx residents aged 60 years or older avoid eviction. The program is the only one of its kind in New York City.
BronxWorks has been great. The service we get here has been wonderful, they don’t look down on you here. People here understand, you’re going to run into hard times, and let’s see if we can find a way of working with you so you don’t have to run into this again. When I came into BronxWorks, a whole new world opened for me.”
