Project Hope Coping With COVID Crisis Counseling Program
THE PROJECT HOPE COPING WITH COVID CRISIS COUNSELING PROGRAM WAS A FEMA FUNDED PROGRAM CREATED TO HELP PEOPLE CLOSELY AFFECTED BY THE COVID-19 CRISIS. WE WERE ONE OF THE ONLY PROVIDERS IN EAST BROOKLYN. DURING THE YEAR AND HALF OF OPERATION THROUGH UNITED COMMUNITY CENTERS, OUR CRISIS COUNSELORS CONDUCTED OUTREACH THROUGHOUT BROOKLYN, PROVIDING MENTAL HEALTH SUPPORT, AND REFERRALS TO THOSE IN NEED. WE WERE VERY SUCCESSFUL IN OUR WORK, REACHING SEVERAL THOUSAND COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND HAVING OUR CONTRACT EXTENDED TWICE BEFORE IT CONCLUDED IN MID 2022.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2021 – Jun 30, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$1.6MSubsidized Early Childhood Education Program
