Goddard Riverside Community Center

Goddards services including early childhood and youth programs, college counseling, supportive and transitional housing, mental and behavioral health programming, employment readiness, linkages to benefits and entitlements, and assistance to homeless and older adults in Manhattan. Goddard Riverside embraces the potential and worth of each individual, connecting them across social, economic and other barriers, and acknowledges the importance of a strong Community. Goddard Riverside cares for families with a variety of educational and recreational programs for toddlers, children, and young people, including making college accessible to low-income youth. We help people who are living on the streets to address the underlying issues that led to their homelessness, acquire basic life skills, and reintegrate into the Community. We prevent evictions and preserve affordable housing by providing free legal representation for low-income tenants and organizing tenants to advocate for their rights.
