Overview
Fall Tutor - After School - SONYC MS340 (56310) University Settlement partners with 40,000 New Yorkers on the Lower East Side and in Brooklyn every year to build on their strengths as they achieve healthy, stable, and remarkable lives. For 135 years, we’ve collaborated with our communities to pioneer highly effective programs that fight poverty and systemic inequality. Established in 1886 as the first Settlement House in the United States, we bring the values of that movement into the 21st century by meeting New Yorkers where they live, listening to their perspectives, recognizing their excellence, understanding them as complete individuals, and creating space for them to organize. We work with New Yorkers of all ages and infuse a commitment to civic engagement, equity, and communal action into our programs, which include early childhood education, mental health and wellness, benefits assistance and eviction prevention, adult literacy and education, healthy aging, community centers, performing and visual arts, and youth development. Our after-school programs for elementary and middle school children in Brooklyn and Manhattan provide academic support, artistic, cultural, and athletic enrichment, therapeutic services, and opportunities for family involvement.
