AAPCI recently partnered with BMS FAMILY HEALTH AND WELLNESS CENTERS to host a women’s health panel at Edwin’s Place, our supportive and affordable housing residence. This collaboration marks the beginning of a broader partnership aimed at expanding access to primary and preventive healthcare, mental health services, health education, nutrition, and wellness programs for individuals across the AAPCI system. We value this partnership deeply and are confident that our clients will too. #womenshealth #health #healthcare #newyork #Brooklyn #nutrition

#aboutyesterday As part of AAPCI’s Summer 2025 Literacy Series, Edwin’s Place hosted a book fair for its tenants featuring over 2,000 books for adults, young adults, and children. From book giveaways, storytime sessions for the kids, to the classic New York summer hot dogs, our staff did an amazing job organizing and making this day a success! This event, as well as those at Serenity House, Renee Steedley, and Queens Family, would not be possible without its partnership with, and generous donations by, Book Fairies and Brooklyn Book Bodega #AAPCI #book #bookfair #newyork #summertime #kids #adults #brooklyn

Our veterans fought for us, now NYC is fighting for them. Veteran homelessness has dropped from 4,677 to 624. That’s an 85% decrease and a powerful reminder that change happens when action meets compassion. At AAPCI, we’re proud to support this progress and continue advocating for housing for all. Let’s continue the mission. #aapci #veterans #american #nyc #newyork #housing #apartmentliving #strong #armystrong

Four years ago, we proudly held the ribbon-cutting ceremony for Edwin’s Place. That day, we set out with a mission: to provide clean, safe, and permanent supportive housing for formerly homeless single adults. Fast-forward to today, that mission provides stability to over 120 New Yorkers. We remain committed to providing dignity, stability, and real housing solutions for our brothers, and sisters in need every single day. Project Architect: RAMSA | Robert A.M.
