Northside Center for Child Development serves over 4,000 children annually through high-quality, outcomes-driven behavioral health, early childhood, and enrichment services. With over $30 million in annual funding, the organization provides children and their families with the support they need to overcome adversity, thrive, and pursue their dreams.
Northside has been a staple of the Harlem community since its founding in 1946 and a pioneer at the intersection of education and behavioral health for Black and Latino children. Several of its programs were the first in Harlem and established the standard of care for many social service agencies. Northside's founders, Doctors Kenneth, and Mamie Clark were psychologists whose breakthrough Black/White Doll Study was used as evidence in Brown v. Board of Education, which declared public school segregation unconstitutional. The philosophy behind this landmark decision, now on its 70th anniversary, continues to inspire Northside to create and drive innovative programs that focus on the strengths of families and the importance of children's self-esteem.
