Urban Resource Institute
New York, NY
To empower individuals, families, and communities, particularly communities of color and other disenfranchised populations, to end cycles of violence, homelessness, poverty, and trauma by increasing safety and resiliency.
As the largest provider of domestic violence shelter services in the United States and a leading provider of shelter and services for homeless families, we address both immediate needs and the underlying causes of violence, poverty, and trauma.
We do more than provide shelter, we offer holistic support services that empower survivors and individuals experiencing homelessness to pursue stability, independence, and healing.
Through trauma-informed care, legal advocacy, economic empowerment, and access to essential resources, our programs are designed to support each person’s journey toward long-term well-being. We recognize that meaningful progress requires care and intervention at every level.
