We are excited to announce our participation in the EBC Multifamily Cohort's latest initiative!

Earlier this week, the UWNYC team headed to Bushwick to visit RiseBoro Community Partnership, one of the therapy providers we support as part of the Atlas initiative.    Riseboro empowers justice-impacted youth through the Functional Family Therapy-Adult (FFT-A) program. FFT-A practitioners work with justice-impacted youth and their chosen families to strengthen ties and build brighter futures — creating safer, more resilient communities.   Throughout the morning, we heard from RiseBoro FFT-A leaders about the  program's growth and community engagement, and explored ways UWNYC could further support the organization. After a presentation, discussion, and Q&A, the RiseBoro team led us on a tour of their school-based facilities.    Thank you to Riseboro for hosting us and offering this opportunity to strengthen our partnership.

It is an absolute pleasure and privilege for us at RiseBoro Community Partnership to partner with David Hutchinson and Tremco Roofing and Building Maintenance to expand the opportunities and possibilities for the youth in Brooklyn. Sustainable construction is a growing and important field with a high demand for a passionate and diverse workforce. Rising Stars is helping to close that gap while building the financial security and financial mobility of the communities we serve. Congratulations Stars! #RisingStars #Workforcedevelopment #Construction #FinancialSecurity #FinancialMobility #Investinouryouth Tremco CPG Inc. Tremco Commercial Sealants & Waterproofing

Citi recently joined @LiveOn NY and @BloomAgainBklyn to host "Flowers and Finance," a financial education workshop at @RiseBoro's Diana H. Jones Innovative Older Adult Center. #CitiVolunteers provided older adults with information and resources to support their financial well-being, while distributing flowers from nonprofit @BloomAgainBklyn, which repurposes unsold and once-used flowers for older populations. As one colleague reflected: "Financial education is important at every age, which is why Citi volunteers leverage our time and knowledge to help individuals of all generations as they seek to build healthy financial futures. Flowers and Finance is a tremendous example of how much we appreciate our older adults and offer advice to assist them in their financial journeys."
