Homecrest Community Services (HCS)

From the bottom of our hearts, we want to extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who made our 28th Annual Benefit Gala a night to remember!  Your presence and kindness help us continue making a difference in the lives of so many.

EBT theft is a crisis, but victim reimbursement is on the chopping block in Albany. Upgrading to chip cards won't happen until 2027, but food security can’t be put on a 3-year waitlist. Our community needs a solution NOW. Read: citylimits.org/opinion-keep-s… #NYBudget #SNAP

I’m proud to join @HCS_Homecrest and @caringkindnyc for their 2026 Brooklyn Alzheimer’s Health Resources Fair. Alzheimer’s is a painful condition that affects not just the patient, but their family and community. Homecrest and their partners work tirelessly to support (1/2)

Honored to welcome @NYCAging Commissioner Lisa Scott-McKenzie to visit our center and hear directly from our members about the need for more senior funding, affordable housing, and expanded center hours. Thank you @CMSusanZhuang for continuing to fight for our seniors!

We were proud to join @AAFederation at City Hall for the launch of United in Speech Co-op NY, the nation’s first pan-Asian interpreter worker co-op. Strengthening language access & economic opportunity for immigrant communities. Thanks to our elected officials for their support.

We are proud to announce the launch of United in Speech Co-op NY! This is the first worker co-op in the country for Asian language interpreters, and they are now accepting requests in Arabic, Bangla, Cantonese, Mandarin, and Korean from community partners! bit.ly/United-in-Spee…

We had great meetings with @CMSusanZhuang and @CMAlexaAviles this week about the 18% and Growing city initiatives. Thank you for listening to our community stories and concerns! #18PercentandGrowing #BudgetEquity

Homecrest joined @LiveOnNY #AgeStrong rally at City Hall ahead of the NYC budget hearing on aging services! We’re proud of our member Susanna, who spoke about why centers like ours matter: community, meals, and a place to belong. Older New Yorkers deserve to age with dignity!

AAPI communities need culturally accessible support more than ever. We urge the @NYCCouncil to fund the 18% and Growing campaign’s FY 27 priorities. #18PercentandGrowing #BudgetEquity @cacf

Yesterday, our Deputy Director testified with partners from @AAFederation’s RISE Network, joining immigrant advocates in urging the City to pass the NYC Know Your Rights Act, the NYC Trust Act, and strengthen sanctuary protections for New Yorkers.

A quarter of New York's undocumented immigrants are Asian, and our communities need to know that the City has our backs. AAF joined immigrant advocates today to call on the City to pass the NYC Know Your Rights Act, the NYC Trust Act, and expand sanctuary protections!

Homecrest Community Services is proud to be one of the over 90 community-based organizations in the 18% and Growing campaign. We're urging City Council Member @CMAlexaAviles to fully fund the AAPI CSI, CCNSF and Access Health Initiatives! #18PercentandGrowing #BudgetEquity @cacf

CACF stands with the nonprofit human services workers currently rallying in to demand a 2.7% investment on ALL State human services contracts and passage of Wage Board Legislation. Add your support to #JustPay for and New York's human services workers: bit.ly/JustPay-Backup…

CACF and our member + partners will be out in full force throughout the week advocating for a fair + equitable NYC Budget! We need culturally accessible support more than ever. We urge the @NYCCouncil to fund the 18% and Growing campaign’s FY 27 priorities. #18PercentandGrowing

Welcome, Dr. Scott-McKenzie! We are ready to work alongside you to ensure older adults have the services and support they need to thrive at in their communities!

Excited to see @HCS_Homecrest lead this intergenerational CPG initiative connecting youth and older adults to strengthen empathy and prevent hate in Brooklyn.

While the storm has passed, many of our 80+ older adults remain homebound due to snow conditions. To support them, our team successfully delivered over 30 hot meals across Southern Brooklyn today, reaching those unable to visit our center in person.

Despite the challenging weather and the approaching storm, our community spirit is stronger than ever. Today, we are proud to have 70+ Homecrest members—including older adults, youth, kids and parents—joining the 18th Avenue Lunar New Year Parade.

Happy Lunar New Year! As we welcome the Year of the Horse, we celebrate strength, resilience, and the power of community. When we support one another and move forward together, we create hope and opportunity for all. 新年快樂! 🐎

On Tuesday, Homecrest joined Age Strong NY’s Advocacy Day in Albany! We called for $173.5M in Proposal #50 to fund community-based aging services. Thanks to @liveonny and everyone raising their voices! Now is the time to act!
