The Partnership has helped thousand of New Yorkers who have become homeless, who are at risk for homelessness, or who are rebuilding their lives after leaving shelters by connecting them with housing and services. The goal is to end homelessness in New York City. 0 0 1619961 1540279 Family Resource Center, East New York, Brooklyn:FRC is a community-based initiative to address and prevent family homelessness in East New York, Brooklyn. The FRC is a "one-stop shopping" community resource, where individuals and families who are currently homeless, as well as those at risk for homelessness, receive the assistance, training, and support they need. First and foremost, we help families living in shelters rapidly transition back into apartments. We also provide emergency assistance to those in the East New York, Brooklyn community at risk of losing their homes. In addition, we offer ongoing supportive services and skill-building that address clients' housing needs, but also their needs in other areas including education, career development, financial literacy, nutrition, health and wellness, and assistance accessing medical and mental health care. Family Resource Center provides assistance to over 2,500 families. Last year the center provided intensive counseling and housing assistance to over 650 families to avoid eviction and screened more than 3,000 community residents for food assistance programs. 1241484 839572 Furnish A Future:New York City's only free furniture bank for those who are rebuilding their lives after leaving City shelters, Furnish a Future helps families get back on their feet by providing basic furnishings and household goods. More than the economic assistance this gives, the real power of this program is to help restore dignity for those climbing back from homelessness. By promoting self-worth and a place of sanctuary, Furnish a Future helps promote housing stability. Last year more than 2,000 households received free furnishings and home goods through the program. Additionally, staff followed up with families after they moved into their apartments to help them access resources and assistance available in their communities. 1063507 910025 Senior Workforce:Our senior workforce program helps seniors maintain their self-sufficiency through employment and community connections, to help seniors at risk of homelessness remain in their homes so they can age with dignity. We provide employment counseling and skills building, including digital literacy, as well as job training and placement. We also offer subsidized internships as a bridge to permanent employment. Last year more than 100 seniors participated in the program. 891452 796387 Positive Step:Positive Step provides intensive case management and supportive services to homeless and formerly homeless individuals infected or affected by HIV/AIDS. Case management helps our clients find housing and access quality health care, while workshops, support groups and legal services help them understand their rights, navigate available services, and overcome barriers to safe housing. Positive Step services are offered at PFTH sites in Manhattan and East New York (Brooklyn), at shelters affiliated with New York City's HIV/AIDS Services Administration (HASA), and at SRO hotels citywide. Each year, we connect approximately 350 homeless PLWHAs and persons at risk with housing and access to other direct services like HIV primary care and treatment, benefits advocacy, crisis intervention, support groups, and legal advocacy. Positive Step also provides free rapid testing and HIV/AIDS prevention education to over 3,000 people annually. And in 2000, we launched our SISTA project, which seeks to prevent HIV transmission in African American women using a group-level, peer-based model of education and support developed by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). This year, the project added two new groups, one for Hispanic women and the other for minority women who are already HIV positive, serving 450 women. 681943 645102 Emergency Shelter Network:The ESN is a network of 64 emergency overnight shelters, 3 soup kitchens, and a food pantry. The Partnership coordinated this extensive network until 2008; we now focus our efforts on sustaining the capacity of these shelters to provide safe and nutritious meals to their guests. The Partnership's full-time Nutrition Resource Manager oversees the food service at all of the sites and provides logistical and educational support to the network. The shelters serve dinner each evening when their guests arrive, and breakfast before departure in the morning. The two soup kitchens provide one hot meal each day to people who are homeless. The food pantry is open to the public and provides groceries to an at-risk population. These walk-in programs are open to the public and strive to serve as many people in need as possible. Under the supervision of The Partnership's nutritionist shelters served 500,000 meals last year. 69775 64198 Peter's Place:Expenses incurred in order to finalize closing of the drop-in center. 199042 162563 Research: Develops and analyzes data on the causes and potential solutions to homelessness. 696458 DMH Pass-thru: Distributes emergency client fund reimbursement to intensive case managers under a contract with the nyc department of mental health. 272692 Advocacy: Works with direct service programs to analyze the structural impediments that are preventing clients from achieving successful outcomes in three main areas: housing, health care, and economic prosperity. 2811362 1668250 6736314 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 75 0 1 241 1 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 7 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 NY X X X Arnold S Cohen 2126453444 305 SEVENTH AVENUE NEW YORK NY 10001 donald H Layton 2.00 X X 0 0 0 richard d cohen 2.00 X X 0 0 0 james druckman 2.00 X 0 0 0 robert freedman 2.00 X 0 0 0 jennifer prosek 2.00 X 0 0 0 Carol Greene Vincent 2.00 X 0 0 0 arnold s Cohen 35.00 X X 241965 0 23938 Karim Parchment 35.00 X 124364 0 23446 Jerry ARKO 35.00 X 104505 0 10672 scott COTENOFF 35.00 X 125016 0 27931 595850 0 85987 4 0 1 0 ck food service co inc PO box 283 Woodlawn station bronx NY 10470 Food for the shelters 219195 nila's trucking 188-20 LUDLUM AVE STALBAMS NY 11412 trucking 154257 schultz & williams Inc 325 chestnut street suite 700 philidelphia PA 19106 fundraising consultant 127975 3 55000 2150308 696458 1427104 2071011 4328870 service fees from gov' 900099 3099752 3099752 service contracts with 900099 1858374 1858374 4958126 20 20 63465 2150308 125223 -61758 -61758 9225258 4958126 0 -61738 391813 391813 2569293 2003974 346999 218320 58525 36470 21585 470 714936 582769 64933 67234 283944 167017 99740 17187 48670 4932 43738 36283 36283 97701 97442 259 11468 5399 5485 584 507411 285468 112275 109668 80853 62297 15266 3290 694864 574723 93085 27056 17484 12584 4799 101 135 135 46717 46717 64766 42848 20327 1591 SENIOR AIDES 843142 843142 DMH PASS-THRU PAYMENTS 696458 696458 FOOD 512102 511883 143 76 DISTRIBUTION OF HOUSEHO 263486 263486 client household assist 240087 240087 379471 305335 13034 61102 8559609 6736314 1280198 543097 1725030 2517933 605632 704481 362500 29754 25464 608881 359858 187455 249023 2519789 1834672 5166509 5595224 1150504 990684 145310 908080 685656 2058584 1821650 X 1548650 2616320 1559275 1157254 3107925 3773574 5166509 5595224 X 0 1 1 X 1 1 X 3797595 3984020 3170356 2984869 4328870 18265710 3797595 3984020 3170356 2984869 4328870 18265710 18265710 26238 30818 30568 3872 20 91516 107392 95767 570000 773159 19130385 31931025 0.95480 0.93150 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 0 1 419429 184193 235236 189452 175665 13787 249023 Cemetery plots 20400 due from affiliate 91455 household furnishings 24321 security deposits 54610 client custodial funds 145310 due from governmental agencies 1498576 1834672 due to governmental agencies 7563 contract program advances 678093 685656 9225258 8559609 665649 0 665649 9289893 64635 64635 9225258 0 9225258 8624244 64635 64635 8559609 0 8559609 Part IV, Line 2b: Funds are held by The Partnership on behalf of clients.
