Empowering Families
Compared to other communities on Staten Island, the North Shore experiences a significant increase in the rate of children living in poverty. These numbers are even more alarming when broken down by race/ethnicity, socioeconomics, disability status, English language proficiency, and parent educational attainment.
To combat the increase of children living in poverty, the Staten Island Alliance works with North Shore parents, caregivers, and families to gain access to relevant resources so they can more actively support their child’s development.
