Housing Works

For over 25 years, Housing Works has addressed the needs of over 30,000 individuals that other organizations deem "too challenging" to serve. Based on a harm reduction framework, our programs are both holistic and empowering.
Our mission is to provide safe, secure, and stable housing to homeless New Yorkers living with HIV/AIDS and/or other chronic health conditions. Coming both from Housing First and Harm Reduction perspectives, after residents have stabilized in their healing Housing Works homes, we will connect them to the life-saving services that they specifically need and will coordinate with their healthcare providers to ensure that all of their needs are met. Housing is available to eligible individuals living with HIV; people of transgender experience living with HIV; single men and women with active substance use issues; HIV-positive single women recently released from a correctional setting; and HIV-positive unstably housed LGBTQ youth (18-24). We also offer supportive, affordable housing for families where the head-of-household is living with HIV.
