Team CUCS was honored to be chosen by New York Road Runner (NYRR) as a charity partner for the NYC Half Marathon in 2014. This is our first event where runners will take a stand in NYC against homelessness. With over 50,000 homeless in NYC, the highest since the great depression, we see many families struggling and over 21,000 children suffering from homelessness in NYC alone.

Center for Urban Community Services and TEAM CUCS are committed to rebuilding the lives of homeless and disadvantaged individuals and families. With your help, we can continue to provide proven services that house the homeless and keep them housed, while also enabling us to share our research and training nationally to decrease homelessness across the country.
