The Manhattan Consortium
|
Urban Pathways is a participating member of the Manhattan Outreach Consortium, along with Goddard Riverside, CUCS, and
Common Ground Community. Funded by NYC Department of Homeless Services, the primary purpose of this outreach
program is to house the most service resistant chronically street homeless clients. The program targets
individuals who have lived on the street continuously, without using shelters for the past nine months and have a lifetime
history of street homeless of five years, or 24 months of continuous street homelessness. The clients on the
caseload include those with diagnosis of substance abuse, mental disorders and a combination of both (MICA).
Clients are housed in stabilization beds, safe havens, and a range of permanent housing which includes using internal and
external options to ensure that our clients receive optimum results. Those clients that do not meet the above
mentioned chronicity requirements are also offered some service including transportation to drop-In centers, shelters,
and hospitals.
Services include:
- Case Management
- Securing Entitlements
- Psychiatric Services
- Follow-up After Housing Placement
