Founded in 1993, Abraham House provides a holistic, family-based program of services to offenders and their families, and other families who struggle to cope with poverty, violence, crime, and lack of essential services. Located in the Mott Haven neighborhood of the South Bronx, Abraham House works with the Courts to offer first-time offenders an Alternative to Incarceration -- a home where they can turn around their lives and learn to become responsible citizens. At the same time, Abraham House provides their families, and other families from Mott Haven, with crisis management, counseling and referrals through its Family and Pastoral Center. This program offers a place of community and hope to those who feel isolated and overwhelmed. Eligible children attend Abraham House’s After School Program, which provides a quality academic program and a safe haven during the hours when they may be unsupervised and most risky behavior takes place. The objective of all activities is to strengthen families and the larger community -- a community which has been described as a pipeline to prison -- so that opportunities to break the cycle of incarceration occur at many points.

Our Purpose, Our Cause Lay Apostolic Ministries with the Poor (LAMP) is made up of persons of all ages and walks of life who share the Catholic faith and share the call to serve through a ministry of presence and faith evangelization. We are called together by the Holy Spirit to move with Jesus and Mary’s compassionate heartbeat for the materially poor in the greater New York City area. Through God’s grace working in LAMP, countless people have come to know Jesus and His love, and their lives have been transformed. Reminding them of God’s personal love, we help them rediscover their own dignity and goodness, enabling them to begin taking responsible steps in bettering their condition. We support and strengthen the spiritual lives of the people we meet through evangelization and personal faith sharing. As missionaries, we learn from fellow LAMP missionaries, but we also learn from the people we serve who often teach and convert our own hearts. Serving the poors makes us spiritually stronger and reminds us of God’s love to properly fulfill our missions. Who Are We? We are a community of Catholic lay adults who share the calling to serve and love the materially poor with the message of Jesus’s love. We live together in community and share a devotion to daily mass, prayer, and living out our faith through service of others. Comprising both single men, women and married couples, our missionaries experience this call to a full or part-time commitment of at least one full year to assist in materially poor parishes, serve with homeless families and evangelize at other sites of poverty. What We Do? We reach out to individuals who are suffering in different ways through our five ministries. With each ministry having its own focus, we are able to connect with those we are helping on a deeper level and form unique connections. LAMP Missionaries contribute greatly to the individuals and communities around them by alleviating stresses and anxieties, filling a void with love and compassion, and serving as non-medical frontliners during a real time of need (COVID). Our five ministries are: LAMP Cafe, Holy Cross Visitation & Fellowship, LAMP for Life, Nursing Home & Hospital Visitation, Homeless Shelter & Visitation.

The Dwelling Place of NY, a sponsored ministry of the Franciscan Sisters of Allegany, NY, is a privately-funded 15 bed transitional residence for homeless women located in Midtown Manhattan. At the time of its founding, Sister Nancy Chiarello and four other members of the Allegany Franciscans were nurses working at St. Clare’s Hospital in Manhattan. From their apartment nearby the hospital they would see homeless women searching through their garbage cans looking for food. This heartbreaking scene compelled the sisters to ask their congregation for approval to open a shelter for homeless women who were becoming more numerous and visible in the Times Square/Midtown area. With the support of their congregation and Cardinal Cooke, the archdiocesan building located at 409 W. 40th Street became “home” for many women beginning in October of 1977. The ministry of The Dwelling Place has evolved over the years to meet the ever changing face of homelessness. Yet its mission remains steadfast, to offer safe shelter and individualized care, support, and guidance to homeless women as they build a sustainable, self-supported life-style. Members of several other religious congregations continue to serve alongside the Franciscan Sisters of Allegany at The Dwelling Place in response to the needs of homeless women and to advocate for compassionate and just services for the most vulnerable in our society.
