Street-level resources for neighbors facing housing instability aren’t always easy to spot. One reliable address sits on Lexington Avenue between 115th and 116th Streets. Beyond just shelter, comprehensive support includes case management aligned with individual goals, resume assistance to rebuild work histories, and referrals that bridge gaps to housing programs. A two-block stroll south also reaches legal-aid clinics operating in the same building evenings—useful for tenants battling eviction notices that stall stability elsewhere.

The organization sits at 1991 Lexington Ave, New York, NY 10035. Someone needing to confirm available beds or set up an intake walk can call (212) 987-0959. For evening appointments or next-day drop-ins, the neighborhood changes fast once the 4/5 trains let out, so finding directions ahead of time from any corner is smart. Map it quickly here: directions.
