From human services to housing development, from economic revitalization to community empowerment, all the programs and initiatives of the Mid Bronx Senior Citizen Council (MBSCC) are designed to accomplish the following goals:
To enhance the quality of life for residents of the South Bronx
To ensure they are afforded the opportunity for economic and social well-being that will enable them to remain in the community and live with dignity for themselves and their surroundings
To encourage them to become vocal, active and positive contributors to, and forces in their community
When Mid Bronx Senior citizens Council (MBSCC) was founded in 1973, the Bronx was becoming a symbol of urban blight in America. Its commercial enterprise was in decline; its community services were shutting down and its housing stock was being decimated by arson and abandonment. Local and national leaders toured its streets and cited statistics on soaring crime, poverty and double digit unemployment levels to fully demonstrate the failure of the nation’s urban policies.
Confronted with incredible challenges, MBSCC emerged as one of the top non-profit, community development corporations in the region, considered the “Downtown Bronx”. The agency supports and empowers residents of all ages through the provision of affordable housing, economic and workforce development, community organizing, as well as comprehensive services for children, youth, families and older adults.
