Providing Housing and Life-Changing Services
Jericho Project is a nationally-acclaimed social service provider ending homelessness at its roots by enabling individuals and families who are experiencing or are at risk of homelessness by providing quality housing, employment and mental and physical health services.
The 41 year old nonprofit serves over 3,000 individuals, including over 700+ veterans, annually. Jericho has been a key partner in New York City’s initiative to end veterans’ homelessness, and is leading bold, innovative strategies to do the same for families and young adults throughout our great city.
Our programs touch four cornerstones of a person’s life: housing, employment, wellness and family stability. We create a culture of “moving on” through a foundation of housing and supportive services provided by expert program specialists and case managers.
We have over 600 units of supportive housing including seven residences in the Bronx and Harlem, as well as scatter-site apartments throughout NYC.
