The SAFE Shelter Act ensures trafficking survivors can have a safe place to escape to and heal.
@GovKathyHochul , sign the SAFE Shelter Act today so trafficking survivors, who often seek shelter without children, can find safety. #SAFEShelterNY

[David Lombardo @poozer87]

Does @GovKathyHochul support the domestic violence survivor support system?

A bill waiting on her desk ensures shelters are reimbursed for beds provided to single, adult survivors of domestic violence.

We highlighted this issue with @NYSCADV.

Grateful to @AM_AndrewHevesi @agounardes for their bold leadership in passing the SAFE Shelter Act & for their commitment to helping all survivors access domestic violence shelters. It's time for @KathyHochul to sign this bill into law & help more survivors find safety.

[Andrew Hevesi @AM_AndrewHevesi]

“The legislation would provide the funding flexibility that shelter providers desperately need to house significantly more single adult survivors of trafficking and domestic and gender-based violence."

Budget cuts mean fewer advocates for crime victims. Over 40 precincts experienced changes in service due to the lack of funding. Thank you @LincolnRestler for drawing attention to this. We ask the City Council to join us in calling for the Mayor to restore the cut. #NYCNeedsCVAP

Great news for NYC! Next step is using the funds from this economic boost to restore funding to public safety programs like CVAP and more! #NYCNeedsCVAP

@NYCDHS Today, we joined @newdestinyorg and @SafeHorizon to testify at the General Welfare/Gender & Equity Committees Joint Hearing on services for DV survivors in shelters. Together, we’re advocating for the support these families urgently need.
