It’s the first day of !

Carmen came to the United States from Honduras in 2024 with her two children, ages 4 and 8, in search of a better future.

When she reached out to us, she was 8 months pregnant, living in a shelter, and navigating the immense challenges of being a single mother in a new country without any support. CIS-NYC immediately offered Carmen resources, like essential infant care items, MetroCards and visa cards, and began working with her to establish broader support for her family through access to our Food Pantry, ongoing case management, and our support group for parents. These programs helped empower her in navigating a new country and experience moments of joy with her family. Today, Carmen and her family continue to benefit from CIS-NYC’s services.
