On Monday, May 23, 2022, The Child Center of NY held its Virtual Benefit. It was a chance to present our vision for the next 70 years by giving a high-level vision of our four initiatives: Family Health & Wellness (Enhancing Family Health), Improving Graduation Rates, Cash+Community Works, and Research, Development, Innovation, and Training. We were grateful for the opportunity to shine a light on the incredible work our team is accomplishing for 55,000 children, families, and their communities every year.

Honoring


The Russell L. Carson Visionary Award was established in 2015 to recognize employees and supporters who perform above and beyond expectations, initiate creative solutions despite limited resources, and demonstrate entrepreneurship in increasing the accessibility to services and opportunities for children and families. The award is named for Russell Carson, whose steadfast and generous support has played an instrumental role in advancing the Child Center mission.
