The Broad Center is a non-profit community center and an Opioid Overdose Prevention Program (OOPP), establishing itself as a key resource to the members we serve. We provide essential services including housing placement, educational workshops, clothing and essential items, job placement services, daily meals, and direct support for individuals and families affected by opioid use and other public health issues. Our goal is to reduce the impact of the opioid crisis while empowering community members to make informed decisions about their health and well-being.
For the past three years, The Broad Center has been committed to uplifting historically marginalized communities across NYC. Our mission is to address and alleviate the systemic disadvantages faced by individuals who encounter challenges. We aim to create lasting impact by providing support to help individuals navigate these barriers and transition into more stable, fulfilling futures. Through comprehensive services, community partnerships, and a focus on long-term solutions, The Broad Center strives to promote both personal and systemic progress.
Our mission is rooted in equity, dignity, and human connection. We are here for the individuals New York City too often leaves behind—those experiencing homelessness, addiction, food insecurity, and mental health struggles. At The Broad Center, we believe that access to support and opportunity is a human right. Every day, we work to restore hope, reduce suffering, and eliminate barriers to stability for those who need it most.
