Located on the Lower East Side on Pitt Street, BRC Los Vecinos Apartments is a co-ed 35 room permanent housing facility for formerly homeless men and women suffering from mental illness, substance abuse and HIV/AIDS. While providing permanent housing for its tenants, Los Vecinos also offers a variety of services aimed at helping clients stabilize their health, maintain their independence and build a community of support among peers. These services include case management, referrals to medical facilities and assistance managing health conditions, medication monitoring, health education, psychiatric management, entitlement support and money management, recreational activities, assistance with activities of daily living and free meals. Why not join the volunteer team and make a difference?
Bring Some Enthusiasm and Good Cheer and Help Serve at a Client Accomplishment Dinner - In order to recognize our residents’ accomplishments, progress & achievements in the prior month, the staff of Los Vecinos Apartments enjoy hosting a monthly special dinner. It’s a fun early evening of peer support, shared laughs and warm stories. We would love if we could identify two to three supportive, smiling, eager volunteers that can assist with set-up, decorating, service and post-dinner clean-up. Of course, you’re always welcome to enjoy the festivities and have a meal with our clients. This is always on the last Tuesday of every month and volunteers are needed from 4pm to 5pm.
PLEASE NOTE: In order to insure the integrity of the BRC volunteer program, as well as the well being of the clients we service, all interested parties must complete a New Volunteer Registration form ( Click here for form) and attend an orientation, prior to receiving an assignment. Apologies, but we are unable to accept walk-ins.

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.
