About the Company

Services for the Underserved

Offers services to underserved New Yorkers

Services for the Underserved (S:US) provides social services to New Yorkers facing homelessness, disability, behavioral health and addiction, poverty, criminal justice involvement, and trauma. It coordinates housing, case management, behavioral health treatment, rehabilitation, advocacy, and other supports across New York City and Long Island to address multiple needs in one place. It differentiates itself by its scale and its integrated, place-based approach that combines housing, health, and justice services rather than focusing on a single issue. Its goal is to help people live with purpose, improve neighborhoods, and break the cycle of poverty for current and future generations.
