My Sisters’ Place is proud to announce that our staff is now trained and equipped to provide comprehensive services and support to survivors in Deaf, DeafBlind, DeafDisabled, Hard of Hearing, and Late-Deafened communities throughout Westchester County. This achievement follows a rigorous three-year capacity-building initiative led by our Linking Communities Collaboration. MSP is fully prepared to offer accessible and culturally responsive services across all our program areas:

  • Family Services: Counseling, advocacy, and safety planning

  • Center for Legal Services: Family and immigration law

  • Residential Services: Emergency shelter and crisis intervention

  • Human Trafficking: Comprehensive support and intervention

MSP has partnered with the New York School for the Deaf to conduct Healthy Relationships workshops for Deaf students. This initiative is funded by the Office of Violence Against Women’s Training and Services to End Violence Against Women with Disabilities Grant Program. MSP collaborates closely with two key partners: the New York School for the Deaf and New York-Presbyterian Westchester Behavioral Health Center’s Deaf and Hard of Hearing Program.
