Hey @NYCMayor — would love to introduce you and Rama to the anti-hunger work of the Urban Outreach Center of NYC. We’re now your neighbor one block west on 90th and 1st! #DignityLivesHere @ZohranKMamdani

[Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani @NYCMayor]

Rama and I feel lucky to be starting a new chapter the way so many New Yorkers have, by moving to a new part of the city. We’re grateful for the welcome to the UES and humbled to be tenants of Gracie Mansion, a home that belongs to the people.

📷 September is #HungerAwarenessMonth!
As we step into the new school year in NYC, let's remember that hunger is a reality for many of our school-age children. Did you know that 1 in 7 kids in the US struggle with food insecurity? 💔

Debt from school meals is rising in New York nearly a year after federal aid for universal free school meals ended, according to a report from the Healthy School Meals for All coalition and @NewYorkHunger. https://t.co/a1pnphbj8Y via @SPECNews1CNY

Thank you @amyyeewrites for this thoughtful look at our growing population of Asian American neighbors in East Harlem. A majority of our pantry guests at UOC are Asian, and we stand ready to continue providing healthy and culturally relevant food options, as we've done for years.

[Amy Yee @amyyeewrites]

My #Bloomberg @citylab @business story: More lower-income #AsianAmericans are moving into public housing in NYC's East Harlem, but social services are still lacking https://t.co/NBrY7vSpOo

On February 2nd at 6:30 pm, my office is hosting a presentation on how to use NYC Housing Connect at the Urban Outreach Center (1745 First Avenue). You will learn how to apply for affordable housing and I'm proud to sponsor this event with @uocnyc @NYCHousing @AvenueChurchNYC.

At a time when more than 38 million people in the United States are at risk of hunger, there are numerous ways you can honor MLK’s legacy and make a difference in our community.
