About us

HousingPlus, Inc., founded in 2002, works to better the lives of homeless women and families by providing permanent and transitional housing with an array of services designed to aid and support their move from homelessness, devastating poverty and family fragmentation to stability, independence and family well-being. We start with where a woman is to build upon her strengths, asking from the first day, “What do you need to succeed?” At eight settings in Brooklyn and in Staten Island, we've designed a model to deliver comprehensive, integrated services in safe, home-like settings to foster a culture based on the core self-help principles of individual responsibility and mutual support.

Meet Bonnie Bach and Mamie McIndoe, our dynamic duo set to be honored at the Good Person Awards on May 9th! 🌈✨ Bonnie and Mamie share inspiration from Maya Angelou to reflect on their incredible 20-year journey with HP, “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” “Life is about forming relationships, making connections, identifying those issues that are meaningful to you, and finding a way to make a difference. At HousingPlus we have collaborated for 20 years, helping women make a house a home for themselves and their children.” 🏡❤️ Their tireless dedication and support have helped transform communities and empower women and their families. Now, we invite YOU to join us in celebrating their legacy and dedication at the Good Person Awards on May 9th.🎉 Join in a celebration of hope, appreciation, and the transformative power of volunteering on May 9th💫 #NationalVolunteerMonth #GoodPersonAwards #HousingPlus #JoinUs #CelebrateVolunteers
