SUMMARY ORDER

Plaintiff-Appellant Richard E. Stone brought suit in forma pauperis, alleging constitutional' rights violations by city and state agencies, a Salvation Army facility, and five New York City police officers. He complains chiefly of the city’s failure to provide adequate security in homeless shelters, and of improper conduct on the part of the law enforcement officers. The district court (Gershon, J.) dismissed Stone’s complaint, sua sponte and pursuant to 28 U.S.C.1915(e)(2)(B), for failure to state a claim on which relief could be granted.

We assume the parties’ familiarity with the facts of the case, its procedural history, and the issues on appeal.

We affirm on the district court’s detailed Memorandum and Order. Even if the three agencies were proper parties under § 1983 — which we by no means hold, see New York City Charter § 396 (stating that, unless otherwise provided, all actions for the recovery of legal penalties shall be brought against New York City, rather than its agencies); Lovanyak v. Cogdell, 955 F.Supp. 172, 174 (E.D.N.Y. 1996) (dismissing suits against New York City agencies on the basis of § 396) — Stone has failed to state claims against them, for the reasons given by Judge Gershon. The conduct which Stone accused the police officers of engaging in does not violate the Constitution or federal law. See Purcell v. Coughlin, 790 F.2d 263, 265 (2d Cir. 1986). With respect to the Salvation Army, Stone alleges neither rights violations nor state action. See Rendell-Baker v. Kohn, 457 U.S. 830, 835, 102 S.Ct. 2764, 73 L.Ed.2d 418 (1982). Stone’s claim against the New York State Division of Parole is barred by the Eleventh Amendment to the Constitution. Idaho v. Coeur d’Alene Tribe of Idaho, 521 U.S. 261, 268, 117 S.Ct. 2028, 138 L.Ed.2d 438 (1997).1

*326We have considered each of Stone’s claims, and find them all to be without merit. Accordingly, we AFFIRM the judgment of the district court.
