As part of National Social Work Month, we sat down with one of our trainers, Allison Costine, to get an inside look at the CUCS Training Institute’s work.
CUCS is thrilled to share that our Bronx Benefit Center is now designated a Financial Empowerment Center as part of an expansion of this city-sanctioned program.
We asked our staff to recommend some great reads in their areas of expertise for your 2020 reading list.
In the aftermath of a tragic event this fall, CUCS resident Antonyo didn’t hesitate to climb onto the tracks to pull a five-year-old girl out from beneath a subway train. Miraculously, he and another bystander were able to bring her to safety.
