CPC 2020 Annual Impact Report

Though much has changed in the last year, CPC is ensuring New Yorkers have the resources they need to not only be safe but also continue to have opportunities to thrive. Whether working from home or out in your neighborhood, CPC is providing immediate relief and advancing a strong recovery for those who are too often underserved, overlooked, or underrepresented.

In this annual report, you will read about challenges facing our community members during the pandemic, including a story of a mother trying to secure food for her newborn and a high school student navigating his parents’ unemployment.

Because of your support, every community member was strengthened with support from a CPC staff member who stayed connected throughout their experience. That's why this year's annual report theme, #AlwaysEssential, was chosen.

We invite you to share these stories with your networks through the links below.

Here are a few highlights:

• 1,644 families received afterschool STEAM and literacy programming at 11 underserved elementary schools
• 100% of Lower East Side Youth Opportunity Hub participants applied for college and will be attending in the fall
• 12,850 reached via text, phone, in-person, or virtual engagements to ensure a complete count in the Census
• 2,981 homebound individuals served through our subsidiary Home Attendant Program
• 707 youth and adults participated in health services, including services for those living with HIV/AIDS
• 2,494 young people worked summer and school-year jobs through the Summer Youth Employment Program and Work, Learn, and Grow
• $11.50 average hourly wage boost for workers placed by our Career Center

Your partnership and support have been integral to CPC achieving all this. Thank you for continuing to make a difference in the lives of Chinese American, immigrant, and low-income communities of New York City!

Sincerely, 

Wayne Ho, President & CEO
