Thank you for helping IMPACT to Celebrate our 5 Year Anniversary!!!
We had a fantastic night, thanks to all our amazing volunteers, staff, and parent helpers. Thank you also to City Council member Diana Reyna for her help in presenting certificates of gratitude to some of our most exemplary community partners, those who have helped us to serve more than 2000 families in the neighborhood.

PARENT'S VOICES:
"I found so many mothers and women like me. I'm really not alone. I am going to keep passing on the strength that I found here."
VOICES FROM OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS:
“Bushwick IMPACT is the leading program in the Bushwick community for early childhood development. The services provided – Parenting and Child Development, Family Literacy and Leadership Development – are essential ingredients that our community needs to succeed. Bushwick IMPACT is vital, and a staple in my district – we are lucky having them working with families providing the necessary services for children to develop properly and thrive.”
City Council Member Diana Reyna
"I am really thankful that an organization like Bushwick IMPACT exists to fulfill a much needed impetus for parents and their families. The parents have become familiar with us [Brooklyn Library] and are not hesitant to ask for materials..."
