When temperatures drop below freezing, the New York City Department of Homeless Services calls a Code Blue. Should you see anyone at risk, especially a homeless individual, please call 311. The BronxWorks Homeless Outreach Team will be dispatched to offer assistance.

BronxWorks food pantries operate on a client-choice model, allowing individuals to select the items they prefer. Distribution is based on family size to ensure appropriate support. We are appointment-based, and all clients must call the hotline (646.596.1316) on the designated call day to schedule an appointment. Appointments are issued on a first-call, first-served basis. Please note that some sites have limited availability, so we strongly recommend calling early, as appointments fill up quickly. Click here for a full list of BronxWorks pantry sites.

BronxWorks Statement On 2024 NYC HOPE Count

June 14, 2024 – Our hearts ache at the latest HOPE Count data that reflects an increase in NYC’s most vulnerable population, those that are unhoused. While the increase is minimal here in the Bronx, we recognize there is much work to be done to ensure the unhoused receive the support they need to get back on their feet. Our Outreach Teams continue to work tirelessly above and below ground with our city and state partners to ensure access to vital services organizations like BronxWorks provides to our homeless neighbors, and we will continue to advocate for more resources to reverse the trend.
