Mission

At Sheltering Arms, our goal is to foster a society where every child and family we serve will have the opportunity to succeed and thrive. We address the effects of social inequity in the most challenged communities in New York City. Our innovative programs and compassionate services measurably enhance the education, well-being, and development of children, their families, and communities. We have maintained an unwavering commitment to our mission since 1831.

About

For over three decades, Sheltering Arms has provided high quality early childhood education services through both home- and center-based options. In the past four years, we have more than doubled the size of our early childhood education program, currently helping an estimated 1,425 children (900 through ten centers and 525 through family child care) annually to beat the odds in low-income communities across four boroughs. Infants and toddlers up to 3 years of age receive home- or center-based care. In home-based care, home visitors work with children and their parents, who also attend weekly socialization groups with other same-age children. Parents are offered various educational workshops, including prenatal and postnatal care, nutrition, and comprehensive family support services. Our dedicated educators guide children through hands-on learning activities and a constantly growing set of innovations, such as mental health support and exposure to the arts. Our model is informed by the nationally recognized Creative Curriculum, which ensures that children gain the early literacy, math, and cognitive skills they will need to succeed in kindergarten and beyond.
