SSB Programs

SSB members have created, financed, staffed and sustained many rewarding and meaningful “core projects” with their dedicated efforts.  Among these are:
Supervised Visitation Project  [Temporarily Closed] providing non-custodial parents the opportunity to visit with their children in a safe and supportive environment, free of charge, eliminating their financial burden and helping bring families back together.
Homeless Women’s Shelter giving comfort and support to women in transition as they take the necessary steps to self-sufficiency, finding a new home and job.
Homeless Artists Project nurturing the creative spirit of those living on the streetsthrough periodic live performances and exhibitions of their work. 
LA Liga Soccer Project giving financial and logistical support to dozens of boys and girls to experience the power of sport and being part of a team.
All Healers Mental Health Alliance in association with the Black Psychiatrists of Greater New York & Associates, supporting the mental health needs of survivors, caregivers and first responders of natural and man-made disasters including 9/11 World Trade Center attack, Hurricanes Katrina and Ike, the recent earthquake in Haiti,  and the BP oil spill.
Empowering Ethical Elders  Join the Social Service Board (SSB) of the New York Society for Ethical Culture (NYSEC)for a series of presentations by experts on a range of issues facing seniors their caregivers, families and friends today. Learn how to protect and promote good health—physical, mental and emotional—and empower yourself with the knowledge to make informed decisions about health care and social support.
Fundraising initiatives
Through the DNA Testing Project, the SSB raises money in support of The Innocence Project to finance DNA Testing and free those who have been wrongfully incarcerated.  In support of the ongoing projects of the SSB, we periodically hold used book sales and jumble sales, with all proceeds going to support our work.  In addition, we accept items for sale on Ebay and Craigslist to support the important work we do.
