TODAY, BHCS INNOVATIVE MODEL LEVERAGES THE SYNERGIES OF HOUSING, EDUCATION AND THE ARTS TO CREATE MEANINGFUL CHANGE FOR CHILDREN, FAMILIES, ADULTS AND COMMUNITIES CHALLENGED BY THE TWIN FORCES OF NEGLECT AND GENTRIFICATION. false false 2244513 2135175 Broadway Housing Communities ("BHC") is a non-profit organization recognized since 1983 for pioneering high-impact solutions to the challenges of poverty, inequality and homelessness in the New York City neighborhoods of Washington Heights and West Harlem. Today, BHCs innovative model leverages the synergies of housing, education and the arts to create meaningful change for children, families, adults and communities challenged by the twin forces of neglect and gentrification. BHC has developed and currently operates seven residential buildings that provide permanent affordable housing and services for nearly 700 children and adults in Washington Heights and West Harlem; two high quality early childhood centers with the capacity to serve up to 250 children from birth to five and their families; three community art galleries; and a new cultural institution, the Sugar Hill Childrens Museum of Art & Storytelling. Reflecting BHCs longstanding commitment to social justice, and with a keen understanding of the multiple causes of generational poverty and homelessness, the Sugar Hill Childrens Museum of Art & Storytelling is dedicated to the cognitive and creative development of children ages 3-8 and their families, particularly those growing up in poverty. The Museums curatorial and educational programs welcome young children to engage with, learn from, and contribute to the cultural legacy of this community. BHCs approach to serving very low income and formerly homeless single adults and families is distinctive both for its integrated tenancy inclusive of those with special needs as well as the active engagement of tenants in the management of their own housing. A 24/7 Front Desk Management System in place at each of BHCs seven buildings provides round-the-clock security serving as the "eyes and ears" of each building and a platform for community-building. The Front Desk also provides part-time employment for tenants, many entering or re-entering the job market. Front Desk staff develop valuable skills including basic computer and email skills via a building management system which enables real-time communication with administrative staff. BHCs first five buildings primarily serve single adults. With the 2003 opening of Dorothy Day Apartments, the focus was broadened to include children and families in greatest need. Designed as a comprehensive approach to serving high risk families, the buildings services include an early childhood program serving 51 resident and neighborhood children, literacy programs for youth and adults, educational advocacy for resident adults and children from K-12 and into college. A community art gallery with a year-round calendar of cultural and civic events including evening and weekend programs celebrates local artists and enriches residents and the wider community. The educational paradigm piloted at Dorothy Day Apartments is replicated at BHCs seventh and most ambitious community revitalization initiative. Known as the Sugar Hill Project, this mixed-use development is located in Harlems Sugar Hill historic district and provides 124 units of permanent housing affordable to families at the lowest income bands, including 25 units set aside for households exiting the homeless shelter system. Tenancy, like at Dorothy Day Apartments, is integrated and inclusive of those with special needs. Staff ARE actively engaged with resident adults, children and families, and provides services as needed. The Sugar Hill Project includes a licensed early childhood center with the capacity to serve up to 200 children from birth to age five and their families in center- and home-based programs. Graced by floor to ceiling windows, abundant light and indoor and outdoor play space, the early childhood center is located at ground level and adjacent to the Sugar Hill Projects cultural capstone, the Sugar Hill Childrens Museum of Art & Storytelling. The inclusion of a cultural institution at Sugar Hill is a natural extension of our service model which engages families and children in creating vibrant communities. The Museum offers 17,000 square feet of exhibition, art making and gathering space and serves a broad audience of building residents, community members, school groups and educators and visitors from near and far. 2302794 Since 2003, BHC has provided high quality arts-infused early childhood education programs for resident and neighborhood children. Together, BHCs two early childhood centers have the capacity to serve over 250 children from birth to age five and their families. Investment in early childhood education is widely acknowledged to be critical to the health of our economy and the wellbeing of our children, yet New York State has fallen to 24th nationally for state funding per child. The impact of that neglect falls most harshly on the youngest in poor and new immigrant communities. Recent research has found that participation in high quality early education programs boosts the performance of the most disadvantaged children and contributes to a 20-50% reduction in income-related school readiness gaps. BHC has long recognized the vital role of high quality early education to support positive outcomes for underserved children and their families, including the formerly homeless, those living near or below the federal poverty line and new immigrants with limited or no English language skills. BHCs Dorothy Day Early Childhood Center and Sugar Hill Museum Preschool offer full day center-based preschool programs and home-visiting programs for infants and toddlers that promote school readiness, physical health, social-emotional and cognitive development, and family engagement. Critical services at both centers include intensive parenting education programs that provide the framework and tools for parents to support the development of their childrens oral and literacy skills; enrichment opportunities both inside and outside the classroom that provide culturally-competent early literacy intervention to reduce or eliminate the enormous word gap between low-income and more affluent children; identification of special needs, medical assessments and coordinated medical services; mental health assessments and support for parents and children; and ongoing school placement support. 2008451 1145294 132640 BHC maintains a robust schedule of arts and cultural programing through its three community art galleries, two arts-based early childhood education centers, and the Sugar Hill Childrens Museum of Art & Storytelling ("SHCMAS"). The Rio Penthouse, Rio II, and Rio III Galleries serve the residents of Upper Manhattan through monthly gallery exhibitions showcasing the work of local artists, as well as related artist talks, poetry readings, literary events, and a variety of community meetings and educational programs throughout the year. The Dorothy Day Early Childhood Education Center and Sugar Hill Museum Preschool provide access to a high quality arts-based, literacy-rich early childhood programs and services for local children, ages 05, and their families. SHCMAS actively addresses the cognitive development of 3- to 8-year-old childrenrecognized by educators as being the most receptive age range for learning through the arts, through regular exhibitions of artwork by contemporary artists and educational and community programs for all ages. 6555758 true true false true false false false false false true true false false true true true false true false false false false false false true false false true false true false false false false false false false false true false false false false true true true false false true 22 0 189 true false false false false false true true false false false false X 15 14 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true true true NY X DAVID NATHANSON CFO 2125682030 583 RIVERSIDE DRIVE NEW YORK NY 10031 ALAN WEIL CHAIRMAN 2.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 VALERIE CAMPBELL SECRETARY 2.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 ELLEN BAXTER EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 40.0 2.0 X X 176707 0 22969 SUSAN MACKENZIE TREASURER 2.0 0.0 X X 0 0 0 ELIZABETH OAKLEY DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 LEE SANDRA MOORE-ABNEY DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 FR JOHN MCVAIN DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 CARLTON BROWN DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 SADDIE SMITH DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 SHERRI SANDLER DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 REV JOHN FELICE DIRECTOR 2.0 2.0 X 0 0 0 ROMAN JACKSON DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 MSGR THOMAS LEONARD DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 TREVOR ADLER DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 BRETT MCKEONE DIRECTOR 2.0 0.0 X 0 0 0 MARY ANN VILLARI CHIEF OPERATING OFFICER 40.0 2.0 X 166028 0 16375 DAVID NATHANSON CFO - AS OF 10/2017 40.0 2.0 X 32940 0 2556 MELISSA BENSON DIRECTOR OF DEVELOPMENT 40.0 2.0 X 132215 0 347 CHARLENE MELVILLE DIRECTOR OF EDUCATION 40.0 2.0 X 111690 0 13861 ABRAHAM FALLON DIRECTOR OF TECH & INFO SYS 40.0 2.0 X 112659 0 28465 LAUREN KELLEY DIRECTOR AND CHIEF CURATOR 2.0 40.0 X 101654 0 16128 833893 0 100701 6 false true false 0 322821 2385654 3517151 1350529 6225626 MANAGEMENT FEES 531310 2135175 2135175 TUITION 611710 132640 132640 2267815 654519 654519 0 0 43820 43820 0 43820 43820 0 95300 322821 95300 0 0 0 0 0 0 MISCELLANEOUS INCOME 900099 121278 121278 121278 9313058 2389093 698339 1145294 1145294 0 0 0 375675 290894 61914 22867 0 4097756 3172991 675342 249423 90653 69673 16630 4350 712837 547821 130870 34146 323351 248502 59360 15489 0 0 204726 7461 197265 58000 58000 0 0 59338 23338 36000 0 173039 104163 61769 7107 0 0 519942 478904 40944 94 21181 17362 3757 62 0 0 0 0 58155 37912 20243 89204 57839 31365 FOOD 149111 133174 15495 442 PROGRAM INSTRUCTORS 11288 11288 TRAINING AND EDUCATION 37188 32192 4996 MISCELLANEOUS 94479 27087 63406 3986 239550 149863 89687 8460767 6555758 1473043 431966 138826 228348 1004396 263700 2272039 2310592 523933 791958 0 0 0 0 4973937 7775318 0 0 105611 35935 1124037 653507 528685 470530 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 654249 9547427 12530630 2131603 315610 0 0 0 2980930 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 22801 1032590 2154404 4329130 X 6057980 7185605 1335043 1015895 0 0 7393023 8201500 9547427 12530630 X 852291 -43814 X false true X true false X 2258125 3654451 4008440 3672180 6225626 19818822 0 0 2258125 3654451 4008440 3672180 6225626 19818822 172561 19646261 9526 2484 986 400 654519 667915 0 98416 171240 328501 165785 121278 885220 21371957 7009961 0.91925 0.64239 X false false false false false false true 58000 false false 58000 false LOBBYING ACTIVITIES DESCRIPTION BROADWAY HOUSING COMMUNITIES, INC.
