Striving to prevent family homelessness, improve the well-being of families in shelter and support the stability of families post-shelter | FHC Fellows @NYC_HOV

[Win @WINNYC_ORG]

Addressing homelessness requires more than emergency shelter. It requires pathways to permanent housing. CityFHEPS provides that pathway for thousands of New Yorkers. We urge @NYCMayor to withdraw the City's appeal and move forward with expanding this proven program.

The Trump administration's decision to redirect federal homelessness funding away from proven long-term housing solutions is a dangerous and reckless reversal. It threatens to undermine years of progress helping people achieve lasting stability. https://t.co/chAQNkEJ7D

485 days since Mayor @ZohranKMamdani promised to expand CityFHEPS while campaigning. 71 days since his administration appealed a court ruling requiring the expansion of the program. New Yorkers are still waiting for full implementation. #CityFHEPSNOW

[Win @WINNYC_ORG]

Thank you @CMPiSanchez for your sustained advocacy for CityFHEPS expansion and commitment to New Yorkers. This law was meant to prevent evictions & move families into permanent housing, and years later, implementation is still pending. https://t.co/lGYTIlBrYz

It’s been 482 days since @ZohranKMamdani pledged on the campaign trail to expand and fully implement CityFHEPS. Yet it has now been 68 days since his administration filed an appeal that reversed that position.

[Win @WINNYC_ORG]

The @NYCMayor says proposed changes to CityFHEPS could save NYC more than $500 million. On @NY1 today, Win CEO @ChrisCQuinn made clear: we can absolutely make the program more efficient — but we cannot abandon the expansion families urgently need. https://t.co/StehEFX9GV

50 health care and community-based organizations are calling on @KathyHochul @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastieNY to act NOW to invest in the health care system while mitigating the impacts of Medicaid cuts on those experiencing homelessness.

[Win @WINNYC_ORG]

Delays in implementing the CityFHEPS expansion translate into longer shelter stays and fewer paths to housing for families. It has now been 468 days since @ZohranKMamdani pledged to expand CityFHEPS and 54 days since the City moved to halt implementation of the law. #CityFHEPSNOW

This #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth, AFC is continuing our fight to protect funding for the Mental Health Continuum, a cross-agency partnership that provides essential mental health supports to students at 50 @nycschools.

NYC is in a housing and homelessness crisis, and the final state budget cannot ignore it. Lawmakers & local leaders are right to push for $250M for HAVP because current funding falls far short of the need. https://t.co/UzLWfsZSDv

The Emergency Housing Voucher program is ending prematurely, leaving over 5k NYers at risk of losing their homes this year. Stephanie, a #dv survivor & advocate speaks with @KDiDDavis about the severity of this crisis in this week's episode of @NYC_HOV: https://t.co/bemUH9wNca

[Win @WINNYC_ORG]

New York must act now to address the looming EHV cliff. Expanding and fully funding the Housing Access Voucher Program (HAVP) is essential to prevent thousands of households from losing their homes. https://t.co/pQ2EA9B7vo

[Win @WINNYC_ORG]

Today, Win rallied with City Council & advocates at City Hall, urging the @NYCMayor to drop the legal challenge and expand CityFHEPS as passed in 2023.

[City Limits @CityLimitsNews]

“The best way for people to move out of shelter is to have a voucher,” @chriscquinn, head of family shelter provider @WINNYC_ORG, tells @KDiDDavis of the @NYC_HOV podcast. “It also is economically better for New York taxpayers.” https://t.co/8LfFAuWWTZ

[Family Homelessness Coalition @FHCNYC]

🚨🎧 New episode of @NYC_HOV! This week, host @KDiDDavis sits down with @chriscquinn, CEO of @WINNYC_ORG, to break down #FamilyHomelessness in NYC and discuss why expanding #CityFHEPS is critical. @NYCMayor, families are counting on you!

[Win @WINNYC_ORG]

Win is proud to stand with nearly 400 organizations opposing HUD’s proposed rule to deny housing to mixed-status families. This proposal does not solve the housing crisis. It pushes eligible families out of federally assisted housing and into homelessness. https://t.co/pH9ae2Ck8r

[Win @WINNYC_ORG]

In @POLITICONY, Win CEO @ChrisCQuinn highlights that many New Yorkers entering shelter are working but still being pushed out of housing due to cost. https://t.co/50YQMEr45o

[Win @WINNYC_ORG]

Day 447 since @ZohranKMamdani’s CityFHEPS expansion promise and day 33 since appealing a court ruling to carry it out. Shelter should not be the default when we have tools to prevent homelessness. NYC families need Mayor Mamdani to act now and uphold his promise. #CityFHEPSNOW

[Win @WINNYC_ORG]

Win CEO @ChrisCQuinn joined @PIX11News to underscore that expanding CityFHEPS is both humane and fiscally responsible. With record numbers of families and children in shelter, vouchers help people move into stable housing faster and prevent evictions. https://t.co/cIxqqteJyl
