Nazareth Housing, Inc.

Nazareth Housing manages 29 units of Emergency Family Shelter for families with dependent children. In the Bronx, our Thorpe House residence provides temporary transitional housing for 16 families. On the Lower East Side, EFS units are co-located alongside permanent supportive housing residences; by living in a mixed residency building, children avoid the stigma generally associated with living in a shelter. All families work one-on-one with case management staff throughout their stay to become, and remain, stably housed.

Nazareth Housing, Inc., a non-sectarian, not-for-profit community-based organization, is committed to the promotion of housing stability and economic independence among low-income families and individuals of New York City through the provision of homelessness prevention services; emergency family shelter; supportive housing; and urgent needs assistance. Since 1983 we have been opening doors, transforming lives, and unlocking potential.
