about the mhcp
MHCP strives to deliver great community and citywide services to our residents. We provide services through coordinated referrals. However, due to COVID-19, We have implemented new strategies to support residents such as Pop-up food pantries and food distribution events around holidays. These events require a good amount of volunteers. In order for us to continue to assist residents we need more volunteers. If you would like to support your community by volunteering with us please complete the form below.
Community residents are the heart of the South Bronx and becoming a volunteer is a direct way for you to give back to the community and to make a lasting impact. This is a great opportunity for individuals seeking to gain new skills, build on existence experience and knowledge. Your role as a MHCP volunteer will prepare you to work directly with community residents and learn more about community resources.
