For more than 75 years, Edwin Gould’s Community of Care has addressed the complex, and often overwhelming, issues that confront society today. Rooted in a history of services focused on the needs of orphaned children during the early years of the twentieth century, our programming now includes a comprehensive array of services incorporating evidence-based practices to address those in need across the life-span. Our cornerstone foster care and adoption services are joined by community-based preventive services designed to assist at-risk families; programming focused on the prevention of domestic violence, intervention to assist victims of such violence, and advocacy toward policy change; criminal justice services; school-based programs; health and mental health services; economic empowerment programming; and group living environments for developmentally disabled adults who wish to live independently. Our programs include the award- winning STEPS to End Family Violence, a nationally recognized program serving individuals at the intersection of criminal justice and gender-based violence. We reach over 10,000 individuals every year across the five boroughs.
