Association To Benefit Children

Our Mission

ABC's mission is to offer every child a joyful, beloved life by creating compassionate programs in urgent response to the needs of New York City's most vulnerable families. We envision a world in which all children have a healthy, safe life full of joy, learning, and love in a nurturing family. ABC employs a "whole family" approach, recognizing that a nurturing family and secure parent-child attachment are critical components of early childhood development and positive life trajectories for children, families, and communities.
