Schools Out New York City Provides the Administrative and Funding resources Needed for our program to succeed.
Westhab Youth Services professionals bring quality after school programs to the Atmosphere Scholars.
Through the creation of a highly engaging school setting, Atmosphere Academy not only prepares students to be ready for college, career, and life, but to succeed once they get there.
Westhab was founded in 1981 to address the affordable housing crisis in Westchester County. In our early years, we acquired vacant buildings and renovated them into quality transitional and permanent housing. In response to growing homelessness, Westhab expanded its focus to renovate and operate shelters in Westchester.
As our organization grew, we looked for ways to improve entire communities by engaging resident leaders and neighborhood stakeholders. Always intent not just on addressing the problem, but working to find a solution, Westhab began to provide employment services and youth programs, supporting families to break the cycle of poverty. We also undertook ground-up development of attractive, new affordable housing residences, including housing targeted toward seniors, veterans, young adults, and the disabled.
Today, our housing and social services combine to create a comprehensive community development approach—not just in Westchester, but also in New York City where we have recently expanded, developing affordable and supportive housing, operating homeless shelters, and providing youth programs and employment services.
Westhab is—Building Communities. Changing Lives.
Westhab se fundó en 1981 para abordar la crisis de viviendas asequibles en el condado de Westchester. En nuestros primeros años, adquirimos edificios vacíos y los renovamos para convertirlos en viviendas transitorias y permanentes de calidad. En respuesta a la creciente falta de vivienda, Westhab amplió su enfoque para renovar y operar refugios en Westchester.
A medida que nuestra organización creció, buscamos formas de mejorar comunidades enteras involucrando a los líderes residentes y las partes interesadas del vecindario. Siempre con la intención no solo de abordar el problema, sino de trabajar para encontrar una solución, Westhab comenzó a brindar servicios de empleo y programas para jóvenes, apoyando a las familias para romper el ciclo de la pobreza. También emprendimos el desarrollo desde cero de nuevas y atractivas residencias de viviendas asequibles, incluidas viviendas destinadas a personas de la tercera edad, veteranos, adultos jóvenes y discapacitados.
Hoy, nuestros servicios sociales y de vivienda se combinan para crear un enfoque integral de desarrollo comunitario, no solo en Westchester, sino también en la ciudad de Nueva York, donde recientemente nos hemos expandido, desarrollando viviendas asequibles y de apoyo, operando refugios para personas sin hogar y brindando programas para jóvenes y servicios de empleo. .
Westhab es—construir comunidades. Cambiando vidas.
