Celebrating Supportive Housing in the Bronx La Central recently opened its doors and offers much-needed affordable and supportive housing in a mixed-use, mixed income location in the South Bronx, New York City. CSH pledged $1M in pre-development loans to our partners Breaking Ground and Comunilife for this effort because La Central beautifully integrates services with homes for vulnerable New Yorkers while meeting a larger vision for a thriving, diverse neighborhood.   A Safe and Supportive Home  Supportive housing developer and service provider New Destiny Housing created The Jennings, a 42-unit service-enriched affordable building, with the mission of providing the stability and support services formerly homeless and traumatized families need to regain their lives and begin a new chapter. CSH invested $3 Million in The Jennings because we value safe, stable and permanent homes for vulnerable families, including survivors of domestic violence and their children.
