ADC employs both group workshops and individual counseling as methods to prepare NYC residents for homeownership. We anticipate that participants receiving H.E.L.P. education and counseling services will experience an increased knowledge of the importance of building assets while boosting income as an innovative approach to greater self sufficiency. The true impact of H.E.L.P. will be seen when community participants remain self sufficient and build wealth through savings and homeownership, allowing them to play a significant role in the economic improvement of Harlem. 


To support the overall health and wellness of the community, please join our virtual online homeownership workshops.


The HELP Homeownership Workshops are available to all NYC residents but are targeted at low/moderate incomes.  The non -refundable registration Fee is $36.25.  These are virtual online workshops that are designed to take the place of the in-house workshops.  There are no income guidelines to participate in the homeownership workshops.

This is a 5 (five) part workshop that takes place over a period of 3 weeks. Our program workshops provide information on NYC HPD's Homefirst Downpayment Assistance.  These workshops are closely monitored and attendance will be recorded. Seating space is limited.  All workshops will begin at 6:00 PM. Only participants who are registered through Abyssinian’s HELP-Homeownership Program will receive credit for their certificate. If you would like to register for the virtual online workshops,  please complete this form (currently disabled) to sign up and submit the non-refundable $36.25 registration fee. You may pay with any major credit card or by e-check. All transactions are secure.
