Lantern Community Services is a homeless services non-profit that helps people who are formerly homeless or have recently aged out of foster care rebuild their lives. We do this through our supportive housing program, which is based on the latest evidence of what provides the most benefit to our clients. Our programs deal with health, employment, education, and life skills and are delivered inside our residences. We have locations in the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Upper Manhattan.
Lantern is currently looking for some people to help with Mommy and Me classes we are running at one of our buildings in the Bronx (Silverleaf Hall, located at 480 E 176th street). Volunteers for this opening would ideally have a lot of experience working with children and/or being a parent. Get in touch if you'd like to help us out!
