Homeless Statistic:  Over the past year, the number of homeless people sleeping each night in the New York City shelter system increased by seven percent, from 50,135 people in January 2013 to 53,615 people in January 2014, the highest level ever recorded.

Homeless Statistic: The number of homeless single adults sleeping each night in the New York City shelter system rose five percent to 11,342 women and men, a new all-time record.

Homeless Statistic: Over the course of FY 2013, more than 111,000 different New Yorkers turned to the homeless shelter system, five percent more than the previous year.

At our Times Square Center Project FIND:

  • Provides a safe space where homeless seniors can shower, get clean clothes and a meal
  • Connects them with a social worker who can obtain all entitlements for which they're eligible
  • Assesses their need for medical and mental health services with an onsite clinic
  • Reconnect homeless seniors with supportive networks of family and friends
  • Work with them to determine the most appropriate housing options and support them as they make the transition off life on the streets

Learn about the Elderly Homeless

Project FIND provides a gateway for the homeless elderly to transition from life on the streets to stable housing

Our Homeless In-Reach program works to:

- Provide a safe space where they can shower, get clean clothes and a meal

- Connect them with a social worker who can help obtain all their benefits

- Assess their need for medical and mental health services

- Reconnect homeless seniors with supportive networks of family and friends

Statistics show that the number of homeless elderly has shot up 55% in the last decade, 28% of that jump is in just the last two years.

On average we place one formerly homeless senior in housing every 5.5 days –all year long!
