Intake Coordinator - Bedford Stuyvesant Family Center

The Brooklyn Bureau of Community Service is one of Brooklyn’s oldest and largest non-sectarian social services agencies.  The Brooklyn Bureau has been a leading provider of social services to families, children, and adults with disabilities since 1866.  The Brooklyn Bureau, which presently serves more than 10,000 individuals annually, is committed to a broad and diverse range of services including prevention of foster care placement; crisis intervention; early childhood and after school education; and vocational training, job placement, and clinical services to adults with physical and developmental disabilities, and histories of mental illness.

 

Our Family Preventive Services program stops unnecessary or inappropriate placement of children into foster care and helps families to productively function.  For more than 20 years, we have served families who have serious problems—including child abuse, neglect, substance abuse, depression, inadequate parenting skills, physical or emotional conflicts, unemployment and intergenerational conflicts—in Brooklyn’s high-need Bedford-Stuyvesant and East New York neighborhoods.
