Though positions are already filling very rapidly for the Christmas season, we do still have a few spots left in various locations in Brooklyn, the lower east side/East Village, Chelsea and Harlem. We will be celebrating in the days prior to, as well as on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day itself. Please understand, once a time slot is filled, it will be closed to further assignments. At the moment, group activities are now booked to capacity. Tasks may involve event set-up, light meal prep, meal service, socialization, post event breakdown and clean-up (shift times, dates and actual activities vary depending on location).
If interested, getting started as a volunteer is a simple one, though there is a process in place prior to obtaining any assignments.

Mission Statement
Helping people reclaim lives lost: We restore hope and dignity by offering opportunities for health and self-sufficiency.
Description
BRC: Helping People to Reclaim Lives Lost. BRC is a leading provider of housing and services to thousands of New York City's individuals in need. Offering a hand-up, not a handout, BRC asks one simple question: What can we do for you? BRC sees the potential in each individual it serves and provides each the opportunity to find it. Whatever our clients may seek, BRC has it, 24/7/365: outreach to homeless people living in public spaces, drug treatment, mental health care, comprehensive medical services, vocational services, and supportive communities in which to live. BRC succeeds by building trust with the people we serve; listening, and then acting, providing housing - both temporary and permanent. Building trust takes time, and a compassionate, dedicated staff of almost 1,000 employees and 1,000+ volunteers that persevere 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year, never giving up.
