The mission of Room to Grow is to
enrich the lives of babies born into poverty throughout their critical first three
years of development. Parents expecting a baby are referred to Room to Grow
by prenatal programs assisting low-income families throughout New York City. Upon
their referral, parents visit our warm and inviting space every three months
from just before the birth of their baby until their child turns three.
During their one-on-one appointments with a social worker, parents select new
and nearly new clothing, books, toys and other baby essentials, free of
charge, and receive information and support to ensure their child's healthy
and secure start in life.
