Since 1981, JCCGCI provides social and human service to the communities of southern Brooklyn and Citywide. Over the past two decades, JCCGCI expanded into a “One-Stop†center addressing a large spectrum of social and human service needs (and was designated as a “Settlement House†by New York State). JCCGCI’s service divisions respond to the challenges being faced by the frail, low-income elderly; the educationally at-risk youth; the vocationally disadvantaged poor; immigrants as well as the capacity building needs of non-profit organizations throughout New York City. Commensurate with this mission, JCCGCI implements innovative responses to evolving unmet needs, on an ongoing basis.
