What Neighborhood Coalition for Shelter Inc does
Mission
Neighborhood coalition for shelter helps new yorkers who are struggling with homelessness, often compounded by mental illness or substance use, to achieve their highest level of independence. We were established in 1982 by faith and community leaders on manhattan's upper east side who believed that homelessness is the responsibility of the entire community. Today we continue to be guided by the principle that neighbors should help neighbors. Ncs offers an array of housing and supportive services including case management; counseling; substance use treatment; vocational, education and, employment services; and an information and referrals program.
As stated on its FY2025 Form 990.
Programs
Residence program: ncs provides supportive housing, which pairs affordable housing with comprehensive on-site supportive services. This evidence-based approach improves housing stability, particularly for chronically homeless individuals, as well as employment status and mental and physical health. Ncs operates a 65-unit permanent supportive residence in manhattan for chronically homeless single adults and a 46 unit residence in the bronx that provides supportive housing to young adults who are homeless or have aged out of foster care. In addition, ncs now operates ncs scholars, a program in long island city, queens, that provides housing and on-site supportive services for up to 29 college students who are homeless or unstably housed while pursuing their degrees.

Cfc targets the psychiatric symptoms that co-occur within the chronically homeless adult population, which has historically had difficulty succeeding in traditional substance use treatment programs. In fy 25 chance for change served 39 clients. Cfc clients have also demonstrated improvements in housing status, becoming better able to seek and maintain shelter and engage in the housing process.

The organization over time
Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.
Balance sheet
Total assets and total liabilities at each year end, in dollars. The largest one-year move in total assets was 2022 to 2023, from $6.6M to $8.2M (+26%).
