TRAINED IN SOURCE OF INCOME DISCRIMINATION
We operate with a strengths-based, goal-oriented approach to advocacy and case management. By building on the inherent strengths of our members, we encourage self-advocacy, enabling them to manage challenges and ultimately avoid crises.

Our staff provides personalized support to individuals who are homeless or at risk of homelessness, helping them navigate New York City’s housing market. Through Housing Search Workshops, Source of Income Discrimination Trainings, and ongoing assistance, the Empowerment Program is dedicated to ensuring marginalized communities receive the resources they need for long-term stability.

After two years, we were thrilled to once again host our largest event of the year, celebrating the culinary excellence of over 30 local chefs, caterers, wineries, and breweries while supporting our critical work to fight hunger and poverty in Brooklyn.

All proceeds will go help Neighbors Together to provide daily meals, connections to stabilizing resources and leadership opportunities to over 10,000 individuals and families each year.
