We are a multi-racial membership-led organization that runs campaigns for the preservation and creation of affordable housing, youth-led and parent-led education reform, immigrant's rights, economic justice, and other issues of social justice that matter to the people that live and attend congregations in the northwest Bronx.

The NWBX Coalition was the major organizing force in the Kingsbridge Armory Redevelopment Alliance (KARA) that effectively pressured the NY City Council to vote against the proposal of the developer Related Companies that did not include a binding Community Benefits Agreement. Currently, NWBCCC is at the forefront of a citywide living wage jobs  campaign that wants to raise the minimum wage overall in NYC.NWBCCC mobilized tenants in a portfolio of seventeen buildings to fight foreclosures in multi-dwelling apartment buildings across the Bronx resulting in a press conference in winter 2010 with Mayor Bloomberg and HPD Commissioner Cestero and the City Council to introduce the citywide Proactive Preservation Initiative to help tenants in foreclosed buildings that have dangerous conditions and are in need of extensive repairs. In the spring of 2010, Sistas and Brothas United along with the broader Urban Youth Collaborative, waged a major campaign to stop the city fros part of an initiative to increase support for weatherization work, and m ending the use of free Metro Cards for youth to be able to attend school.  The campaign culminated in a citywide walkout of 23 NYC high schools. The largest contingents were from  Bronx schools including 2,000 students from Dewitt Clinton High school. Shortly after the walkout it was announced that the metrocard program would remain intact for at least another year.  Our weatherization program received an increase due to federal stimulus funds that will allow us to triple the number of units served by the program. The program will make New York homes energy efficient, lower fossil fuel emissions, and combat climate change. It will save households an average of 30-40% of energy consumption, and if sustained by the community could create around 60,000 quality green jobs and obviate the need to site new power plants.
