Youth Counselor - Youth Counselor Ali Forney Center Employee Review

Helping underserved youth find housing

Better training opportunities for employees.

The clients are incredible and many of the coworkers genuinely want to see change. Strong sense of justice from many of the people who work there, and very impactful conversations about inequity.

Struggles with managing the expectations of the homeless care setting in New York City and the needs of the clientele. It was often hard to advocate for clients because of bureaucracy.
