Inspired by the belief that transformation can occur in every individual that comes to it for assistance, Jericho Project steadfastly works to advance its mission to end homelessness at its roots by creating a community that inspires individual change, fosters sustainable independence, and motivates men and women to reach their greatest potential.

Jericho Project is celebrating 30 years of helping people change their lives this year; an important anniversary for an organization that was started in 1983 by three churches that took up the call to help New York City address its burgeoning homeless crisis.

Three decades later, with the homeless population at a record high and poverty impacting a growing number of New York City residents, Jericho Project is now providing housing, employment and other critical programming to more than 1,000 adults and children in five service areas:

Supportive Housing

Workforce Opportunities

Family Programs

Veterans Initiative

Homelessness Prevention and Housing Placement
