The Sharing Community began in 1983 as a coordinated response by community and religious groups to the rising tide of poverty and homelessness in southwest Yonkers. We established a community-based soup kitchen and homeless shelter program in space borrowed from community churches.   Over the years, the simple soup kitchen and shelter  moved into its own facility and quickly expanded the array of services we offered to meet the changing needs of the communities of southwest Yonkers. 
 
An independent nonprofit corporation since 1984, The Sharing Community currently offers permanent and transitional housing, substance abuse harm reduction counseling and HIV/AIDS counseling and testing, prevention education, case management, nutritional support services and peer support groups in addition to the soup kitchen and shelter programs with which we began. In collaboration with other neighborhood institutions, we are also able to offer on-site, health and mental health clinics. 
Our central service center at 1 Hudson Street offers a comprehensive array of services which now includes food, housing and eviction prevention,  and health and mental health services.
