BHRAGS Alliance provides support to singles and families in NYC Emergency Shelters, enabling them to find permanent affordable housing.

How We Serve You
We aim to provide programs that secure stable housing, prevent homelessness, and foster independence.

Emergency Shelter at BHRAGS
Through its network of emergency shelters, BHRAGS aims to maintain home stability, avoid repeated shelter stays, and encourage self-sufficiency.
If you need a safe place to sleep in New York City, the Department of Homeless Services (DHS) will provide shelter. An emergency shelter is a temporary facility providing housing for homeless individuals and families who lack other housing options.
Adult Shelters
BHRAGS Single Adult Shelters provide meals, 24/7 security, case management, housing aid, and assistance in obtaining any additional resources that may be a barrier to independence.
A trauma-informed staff creates a personalized care plan to suit client’s urgent needs and works with them to locate permanent homes swiftly.


Family Shelters
BHRAGS Family Shelters provide meals, 24/7 security, case management, housing aid, recreation, and assistance in obtaining any additional resources that may be a barrier to independence.
Recognizing the fundamental need for shelter, BHRAGS provides emergency shelter for all eligible homeless families, with a clear application process through DSS-DHS.
To facilitate a swift transition to permanent housing, staff assist parents in finding employment and prioritize children's health and development. Each family develops a personalized service plan outlining steps to achieve stability, including obtaining benefits, securing employment, finding housing, and improving their overall quality of life upon transitioning to the community.
