Overview

Mission

The mission of the Bronx Jewish Community Council is to improve the quality of life of all Bronx residents by offering a wide-range of social and supportive services and connections to vital resources that enable families and seniors to continue living healthier lives in their homes in the communities of the borough.

What it reported doing in 2021

The Bronx Jewish Community Council Home Attendant Services, Inc. provides or arranges for home care clients who have service needs beyond home care to receive emergency food, food stamps, help with avoiding eviction and other social services. As a community based provider, BJCCHAS has both as its mission and the ability to enable clients to help clients remain safely at home in the community. Quality home care is only part of the effort needed which includes help with entitlement applications and renewal, and helping the client and family make appropriate future financial and care plans. Additional services are provided in conjunction with our affiliate corporations Bronx Jewish Community Council, Inc and West Bronx Housing and Neighborhood Resource Center

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 100% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

MIXED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and few specific pay-setting methods are documented in the filing; unanswered boxes are not proof of absence.
