Who We Are

CAMBA is a community of staff, volunteers, clients, donors, neighbors and partners who work together to build an inclusive New York City, where all children and adults have access to the resources and supports they need to thrive. We take a comprehensive approach by offering more than 180 integrated programs in education and youth development, family support, job training and employment support services, health, housing, and legal services. We reach almost 80,000 individuals and families, including almost 13,000 youth. CAMBA serves a diverse cross‑section of New Yorkers from new mothers in Brownsville to job seekers in the Rockaways. More than half of our clients are immigrants and refugees from around the globe. Over 85% of our families are living in poverty, reflecting the challenges faced by nearly 1.7 million New Yorkers today.

CAMBA operates 6 single adult shelters, 6 family shelters and one drop‑in center. Each shelter offers clients a supportive, structured therapeutic, safe, and drug‑free facility. Homeless (often mentally ill and substance abusing) men and women are provided with comprehensive services to stabilize their condition in order to successfully transition into permanent and/or supported housing.

CAMBA’s The Kings Inn Family Shelter is funded by the New York City Department of Homeless Services and offers families a supportive, structured therapeutic, safe, and drug‑free facility. It provides comprehensive case management services to 100 families who are in a transitional residence program for homeless families. The two‑story facility has rooms of various sizes, common areas and provides on‑site security and social services.
