Single Mom Struggles To Raise Her Three Children in NYC Shelter
Win is the largest provider of shelter and supportive housing for NYC’s homeless families.
New York spends $1.2 Billion a year on homelessness and yet the problem is only getting worse.
70% of homeless New Yorkers are families with children.
New York City is facing a homeless crisis on a scale never before seen. And, despite the perception to the contrary, a disproportionate number of the homeless are actually families, most of them led by women. These mothers, aunts, grandmothers and sisters – many of whom have fled domestic violence – are the forgotten faces of homelessness in our city.
Improving the lives of NYC’s women and children for over 30 years.
For more than 33 years, Win has provided safe housing, critical services, and ground-breaking programs to help homeless women and their children rebuild their lives. In the past year, Win served close to 10,000 homeless people — including nearly 6,000 children — and helped more than 800 families transition out of shelter into homes of their own.
