What’s New

CASTLE GARDENS - FORTUNE'S NEW GREEN, AFFORDABLE-HOUSING AND SERVICE FACILITY - IS NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS!

The Fortune Society is pleased to announce that we are currently accepting applications for Castle Gardens - our new mixed, affordable-housing and service facility in West Harlem!

With the development of the Castle Gardens facility, The Fortune Society is pioneering an innovative approach to serving the community. For the first time in our 42-year history, we will provide affordable housing and essential services at the same site, creating long-term housing solutions for individuals with criminal justice histories, as well as low-income individuals and families from West Harlem and the greater New York area.

Residents of Castle Gardens and the adjoining Castle will access the support they need just steps from their homes. Programs at the 20,000-square-foot Service Center will range from career development and education to family counseling. The Service Center will also provide a much-needed meeting space for local community groups.

Castle Gardens highlights include: office and meeting space for Fortune staff and programs; computer lab and library; a 725-square-foot conference and event room with state-of-the-art technological equipment; 114 apartments for individuals and families; energy-efficient green design leading to significant long-term cost savings.
