    Tenants at 1187 Anderson Ave in the Bronx are fed up with broken promises. From pest infestations to malfunctioning elevators, they’ve been dealing with unsafe and unsanitary conditions for far too long. Despite a settlement last year, essential repairs were never made, leaving residents in a constant struggle for accountability. It’s time for their voices to be heard and their homes to be fixed. #BronxHousingCrisis #TenantRights #CASAPower

    🎉 We are proud to announce that our Executive Director, Rigaud Noel, has been honored in City & State's Above & Beyond: Social Services list! 🙌 Rigaud's work at New Settlement is deeply inspired by his Haitian immigrant parents, who instilled in him the importance of community and support. From launching our food pantry to enhancing college readiness programs and expanding wellness resources, Rigaud is dedicated to ensuring that no family in the Bronx has to struggle the way his family did. Since joining New Settlement in 2020, Rigaud has led a remarkable rebranding campaign and overseen the reopening of our community center. Under his leadership, annual revenue has surged by over 50% to $12 million, allowing us to serve 15,000 patrons each year! Rigaud believes in the power of community partnerships, as seen in our collaborations with local institutions like the Yankees and Montefiore Hospital. His journey started with a youth development internship that sparked his passion for advocacy, and today, he continues to give back as a volunteer firefighter. Join us in celebrating Rigaud's incredible achievements and his unwavering commitment to building a stronger, healthier community. Congratulations, Rigaud! 🎊💚 #AboveAndBeyond #SocialServices #NewSettlement
