"Malik was dismayed that the city seemed… so ill-prepared for Ida, & did not sufficiently work with community groups like @AlgiersProud. He feels it is shameful the city never recognised the work Jordan & the others did."

43 days of advocacy for seniors at the Boyd Manor senior housing facility in Algiers, and we’ve just learned that @HUDgov has failed to inspect the facility since 2016. This is highly alarming and unacceptable! #nola#algiers#elderabuse
The @splcenter and @SLLSHelps are actively working with us to finalize a legal response for the senior citizens at #BoydManor, so that each of them can know & understand their rights concerning the elder abuse & financial exploitation taking place by management - TALIAFARO Inc.
UPDATE:
After pointed conversations w/ @HUDgov, we are absolutely stunned at what we've discovered: HUD has failed to inspect the Boyd Manor senior housing facility in #Algiers since 2016.
Nearly 6 years of ZERO INSPECTIONS, for a facility receiving 70% of its funding from HUD.
Algiers Proud co-founder, and LA State Rep. candidate in District 102, @jordaneworleans, said this about the developments:
"The government has once again failed the precious elders of our community - and we will not rest until all complicit parties are held fully accountable!"
A few pictures of our friends at #ElysianMeals today, who have partnered with us to deliver fresh, hot meals to community members in need in Algiers! Thanks for keeping the seniors at #BoydManor fed with a delicious jambalaya dinner. 🍛 We love & appreciate you! ⚜️❤️ #MutualAid
We'd like to publicly thank the @splcenter for all of their assistance, as we continue to push for justice at the #BoydManor senior housing facility in Algiers. We appreciate you! ⚜️❤️ - Algiers Proud
For the past 26 days, we've been distributing food, water and supplies at Boyd Manor - and advocating against widespread elder abuse & neglect that our volunteers became aware of post #HurricaneIda. Thank you @LouisianaGov for taking these claims seriously! ⚜️❤️ #AlgiersProud
Until we're able to share more info. about the progress being made, we'd like to thank @jordaneworleans for leading the charge on holding our leaders accountable - and every one of our volunteers/advocates for your service & compassion. Thank you for making Algiers proud! ⚜️❤️
The past several days of advocacy & organizing within our community have been such a beautiful display of unity & action! Volunteers, legal advocates, and medical professionals joined us for the #SaveOurElders day of organization & advocacy - which led to multiple investigations.
