Throughout New York City, neighbors stood up and took responsibility for each other, working cooperatively to support and empower all who lived in their community. The result was the rise of neighborhoods where people shared a vision, were able to live safely and positively, and participate in their own and each others successes.Rooted in this tradition, Lincoln Square Neighborhood Center was founded over 65 years ago in Manhattan. Our mission remains the same: to meet the social, educational, recreational and cultural needs of the greater Lincoln Center neighborhood. We work every day to meet the emerging needs of our neighborhood by delivering programs and services to the over 1,000 members of our community, from preschoolers to senior citizens. false false 1095724 Lincoln Square Neighborhood Center (LSNC) continues to meet the needs of the families and individuals that reside in the Amsterdam Houses and the Amsterdam AdditionNew York City low-income housing, located between 61st and 65th Streets and Amsterdam and West End Avenues. More than 90% of the population served by the three programs at LSNC is Hispanic or African-American and a large percentage are low-income residents who are at or near the poverty level. Senior ServicesThe West 65th Street Senior Center serves as a vital resource to more than 600 seniors over the age of sixty from the local area, providing services Monday to Friday, during working hours. We strive to provide a comprehensive daily roster of activitieseducational, social and recreationalto meet the diverse needs of the senior community here. LSNC gives the seniors in the community a place to meet and enjoy each others company, participate in classes and stay healthy.One of the most attractive features of our Senior Center is the exceptional range of activities available. These include the overwhelmingly popular exercise classes, such as Zumba and Yoga, as well as a wide range of arts and crafts, including jewelry-making, painting, and knitting. The seniors also have access to our well-equipped computer lab and training in technology, including internet access, email and cell phones. The lunch time meal service supplies a full, healthy meal to an average of 65-75 community members per day and is often accompanied by volunteer performances of music and dance. Finally, special events are held on a monthly basis, often in partnership with organizations based in the local community. These have included everything from trips to Atlantic City to performances by musicians and performers from Julliard and Lincoln Center.LSNC offers an extensive range of activities designed to improve and maintain the communitys physical and mental health. The Center staff work closely with the senior population to identify and assess the major health risks and develop the appropriate programs to meet their needs. At present, we provide numerous presentations and classes on a range of health related topics, from diabetes to memory loss, as well as screenings and counseling. Bilingual (Spanish/English) staff members provide on-site and in-home services for those unable to visit our offices. The combination of meal service and nutritional assistance, coupled with exercise classes and health education, makes the health management support we provide to our senior community irreplaceable.LSNC social workers also assist with obtaining and maintaining benefits, including Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, SSI, food stamps, and public assistance by providing information and referrals to medical, psychiatric, legal, vocational and home care services. We strive to educate and empower members of the senior community and provide them with the support and resources they need to remain in their homes, living as independently as possible, for as long as possible.Youth ServicesIn the 2013-14 school year, the LSNC Afterschool Program served 40 children aged 5-11. Approximately 90% of the children who attend the program are Hispanic or African-American and reside in the Amsterdam Houses and Amsterdam Addition adjacent to the Center. The majority of parents with children enrolled in this program earn less than $24,000 per year. With the support of our services, parents and caregivers are able to work or study full-time while their children benefit from a well-rounded curriculum, caring staff, and world-class cultural activities.In 2013, LSNC hired an enthusiastic and dedicated new Director of Youth Services. Under the new leadership, the Afterschool program saw increased enrollment, enhanced programming, a redesigned curriculum, and a renewed sense of order in the classrooms.Our Afterschool Program provides academic support, cultural enrichment, and health and fitness focused programming. The After School Director oversees tutors from Fordham University who support students in completing their homework assignments. Children are further encouraged to develop their reading and writing skills through Common Core aligned supplemental materials designed in-house by the Afterschool Director and staff. As a result, our participants improved confidence and achievement in school, built closer relationships with parents, and scored higher on statewide examinations.Lincoln Center has demonstrated their commitment to the disadvantaged youth we serve with trips to their iconic campus for spectacular performances, as well as bringing their world-renowned artistic offerings right to our front door. Teaching artists and performers from Lincoln Center Education now visit us each week to provide dance instruction as part of the regular programming. In addition, Lincoln Center has sponsored events such as a Brazilian Maracatu Master Class, an interactive performance with storyteller Charlotte Blake Alston, and a collaborative djembe bongo drum classto name just a few. In 2013-14 we also worked with the New York Philharmonic, the New York City Ballet, and Midsummer Night Swing. In addition, we offered, and continue to offer, our participants professional art instruction in the skills, techniques, and visual language of the fine arts through our partnership with the Art Students League and provide fun, attractive ways to get kids active and healthy, by partnering with La Palestra Fitness and Super Soccer Stars.Day CareThe Mabel Barrett Fitzgerald Day Care Center serves children from 2 5 years old offering Universal Pre-Kindergarten full-day program to parents who would otherwise not be able to afford it. Our Day Care not only supports childhood learning and development at a critical preschool age, but also enables the parents to pursue their own work or study with affordable, high quality childcare. 1095724 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true true true false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false true 14 0 true 58 true false false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 10 10 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false X Mary Mulvihill 2128740860 250 West 65th Street New York NY 10023 David Jaffe President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Reshma Rughwani Vice President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Andrew Blumenstock Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Helen Kim Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Eliza Hammel Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Risa Berryman Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sabin Danziger Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Tiffany McFerrin Foa Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Aynesh Johnson Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Sam Slater Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Gerald Kahn Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ken Biberaj Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mary Mulvihill Executive Dir. 35.00 0.00 X 103600 0 6700 103600 6700 1 false false false 0 19300 1062551 357277 1439128 Program Income 120829 120829 120829 0 0 0 51639 51639 51639 51639 0 1450 19300 1450 0 0 0 Other Income 383 383 383 1611979 172468 383 0 0 0 0 109012 37064 35974 35974 0 743563 648937 73122 21504 0 62554 50324 8008 4222 83550 67215 10696 5639 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 41264 34903 6361 0 0 16581 13339 2123 1119 5400 4344 692 364 0 0 2438 2438 0 30284 24363 3877 2044 19972 19972 Professional Fees 214995 98048 113533 3414 Food 76248 76248 Loss on asset impairment 53980 53980 Bad Debt Expense 20814 20814 61620 40939 17265 3416 1542275 1095724 368855 77696 72644 58449 0 191990 155833 0 0 0 0 0 19711 9941 495893 428313 151844 67580 0 0 0 0 0 436189 291803 256931 135355 8500 99700 55083 53769 411714 197624 X -26365 -43184 50840 137363 24475 94179 436189 291803 69704 X false true X true false X 1642754 1791722 1547370 1616297 1439128 8037271 0 0 1642754 1791722 1547370 1616297 1439128 8037271 144515 7892756 34079 32992 42404 51943 51639 213057 0 19109 681 2516 1227 383 23916 8274244 605159 0.95390 0.90550 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 457105 396097 61008 38788 32216 6572 67580 Grant Advances 53769 53769 X 2004954 392975 392975 1611979 1611979 1935250 392975 392975 1542275 1542275 Part X : FIN48 Footnote LSNC does not believe its financial statements include any material, uncertain tax positions.
