A Safe Haven for Change in New York

At Myra’sHouse, we provide a safe and supportive space for young people looking to break free from gang violence and criminal lifestyles. Through cognitive behavioral therapy, social-emotional learning, job readiness, and leadership training, we equip our youth with the tools needed to build a brighter future. Our approach is rooted in lived experience—90% of our staff have been personally impacted by the justice system, allowing us to connect with and guide our youth in a way that few others can. 

Inspired by Mrs. Myra, a beloved elder who nurtured and protected children in our neighborhood, we continue her legacy by offering the same care, guidance, and opportunities to those who need it most.We are committed to reaching at-risk youth ages 14 to 24, providing resources that foster personal growth, accountability, and long-term success. Whether it’s through anger management workshops, life skills training, or gun violence awareness programs, our goal is to help young people make meaningful choices that lead to positive change. We offer online booking and live chat services to ensure accessibility for those seeking support. If you or someone you know could benefit from our programs, reach out to us at [email protected] or call (914) 557-6789 .
