Founded in 1980 and incorporated in 1981, Neighborhood Self Help by Older Persons Project, Inc. (SHOPP) is a non-profit multiservice agency, serving over 10,000 older adults, caregivers and other Bronx residents a year. While our central office is located in the Hunts Point / Longwood community, we have over 35 off site service locations in almost every community district in the Bronx. SHOPP’s mission is based on the philosophy of self-help. We believe that older adults are capable of helping themselves and others improve their capacity to deal with the physical, emotional, social, and financial challenges they face as they age.
