Measurable impact on families and community members in the Bronx
Claremont Neighborhood Center in its mission to provide high quality afterschool and child care services to children provide supports to its families with a wide array of services that strengthens families and aids them in maintaining strong family bonds and an improved quality of life.
The myriad of supports that we provide through the facilitation of a variety of long-standing community partnerships and direct services enables us to bring needed supports to families in our community and the children that we serve 5 to 6 days a week.
Our impact is measurable and significant. Here are the concrete results of our community engagement efforts:
The partnerships we have established and maintained over multiple years has enabled us to address family and community needs across multiple vital areas:
Weekly access to free healthy produce and meats
Winter coats, boots, pants, shoes, and more
Free refurbished sneakers for children and teens
Back to School supplies, adult literacy programs, English as Second Language classes, GED preparation and testing, credit recovery programs for youth 17-21
Job placement and resume preparation, paid summer internships (ages 14-24), vocational training services, security training licenses, OSHA certifications, Home Health Aide training
Free medical insurance resources, free eye exams for children, autism support events (Awesome Talks), court-involved youth counseling, cure violence mentorship programs
Our ability to meet with and maintain contact with our local NYCHA tenant associations, community leaders, public officials and other community groups strengthens our effort to bring our families and community participants in the most effective way.
The successes we have encountered are accomplished by way of the supports we can bring our families. Each partnership amplifies our impact and extends our reach.
The phrase, "It takes a village", is demonstrated each day in our efforts to bring the highest quality of service possible to our families and children.
These partners work cooperatively with CNC and respond immediately to any of the referrals and needs given to them upon our contact. Claremont's ability to connect parents or youth participants to the wide array of services we have available is the cornerstone of the efforts we take to strengthen our families.
We model the belief of "Community First" in our effort to support our families.
