SOCIAL SERVICE

The United Community Center of Westchester, Inc. (UCCW) is dedicated to providing essential resources to meet the basic needs of individuals facing challenging situations. Our mission centers on offering healthcare, education, nutritious food, safe shelter, and emergency assistance to those who need it most. We are committed to thoroughly assessing each individual case to understand our clients’ unique circumstances. This comprehensive approach enables us to identify and connect them with the specific resources and services they are entitled to, whether it’s medical care, educational programs, food security, safe housing, or emergency support.

Recognizing that we cannot address every need alone, we have established strong partnerships with external agencies to create a robust support system. We collaborate closely with hospitals, county offices, government agencies, law enforcement, housing authorities, and other community organizations. These strategic partnerships enhance our capacity to serve our clients more effectively and provide them access to a broad range of services and resources. Our work with hospitals and clinics ensures that those in need of medical care receive appropriate treatment. Additionally, our partnerships with county offices and government agencies help our clients access the programs and benefits they are eligible for. Through our cooperation with law enforcement, we are able to offer a safe and secure environment for those seeking shelter and emergency assistance.

We carefully analyze each individual case to ensure our clients receive the resources and services to which they are entitled.

We understand the importance of connecting and collaborating with external agencies as a vital part of providing this much-needed support system. This collaboration is made possible through our partnerships with hospitals, county offices, government agencies, law enforcement, housing authorities, and other community-based organizations.
