Manuel is a man with a plan. He loves to cook and aspires to be a chef at a 5-star restaurant one day. When a series of unfortunate events caused Manuel to lose his job, fall behind in rent, and eventually lose his apartment, he worried about his kids, he worried for himself; he needed to find a way to keep his family together. SCO provided me with a roof over my head, access to food pantries, and even provided us with fun and recreation that lifted our spirits.
While at the shelter, the family received counseling, housing services, and family support services to ease the transition. Manuel laid out a clear path for his family. And all three children settled into their new schools and new life. SCO operates homeless shelters throughout Brooklyn, Queens and the Bronx that provide individuals and families a safe place to stay.
Many of our shelters also offer a variety of on-site services including job readiness, medical, mental health, and rehabilitation to help residents find permanent housing and prepare for independent living.
