We are sad to see the rise of hate crime against Asians. Our hearts go out to all victims' families due to the tragic event that unfolded in Atlanta, where six Asian women were murdered. As an organization founded and led by persons of color, we celebrate and promote diversity. With 87% of our clients are Black/African American, Latinx, Asian, Hawaiian, Pacific Islanders, Alaska Native, and American Indian, we understand the traumas created due to racism and its impact on their lives. We believe advocacy for their safety and well-being is central to our work, including standing up against racist violence and harassment. We stand with our Asian friends, colleagues, allies, and community partners in grief, and encourage all of you to find ways to show support to #stopasianhate.

We know life issues can be distressing. Sending #supportive vibes to those who are struggling. We are here for you regardless of who you are and where you live. #BACNY #wellness #community #traumainformedcare #covid19 #crisiscounseling #lgbtq #NYProjectHope

We are so grateful for the support of Robin Hood to address the ongoing food insecurity in Brooklyn. Here are pictures from our emergency food distribution event last week.

Pop-up Food Pantry today, 3/12, at 11:30 AM at 2261 Church Avenue. Food goes fast. First come, first serve. Help spread the word. #BACNY #community #foodinsecurity #wellness
