[Cynthia Stuart @cynstuart]

The supportive housing system in NYC is already hugely strained. Cuts to housing & homeless agencies will be catastrophic. @galeabrewer @NYCCouncil, urge @NYCMayor to not cut housing & homelessness agencies in the City budget! #NOPEGS #NOCUTS #savesupportivehousing @theNetworkNY

[Cynthia Stuart @cynstuart]

@LauraMascuch Congratulations!!! So difficult!

[Daniel’s Law @DanielsLaw_NY]

We’re disappointed in the Governor’s final budget and her lack of urgency around implementing Daniel’s Law. Our Coalition remains committed to fighting to ensure that a mental health crisis is NOT a death sentence. #DanielsLawSavesLives

"I am deeply concerned about how B-HEARD is operating & police responses. What we saw w/ #JordanNeely shows the necessity of having mental health crisis response w/o police intervention." TY @ShahanaFromBK at today's @NYCCouncil Mental Health Comittee hearing. #PeersNotPolice

@cmclymer Definitely not! If they did this on pro baseball I might just watch

[New Destiny Housing @newdestinyorg]

Increases in the costs of land, labor, materials + interest rates, have eaten away at the 7-year-old Empire State Supportive Housing Initiative (ESSHI) rate. @NYSenate @NYSA_Majority: The state needs to increase #ESSHI rate to meet the needs of today! @theNetworkNY.

[Jericho Project @JerichoProject1]

Sharp increases in the costs of land, labor, materials + interest rates, have eaten away at the 7 yr old Empire State Supportive Housing Initiative (ESSHI) rate. The state needs to increase the per unit ESSHI rate to meet the needs of today.@NYSenate @NYSA_Majority @theNetworkNY

[New Destiny Housing @newdestinyorg]

We agree: "#SupportiveHousing is a proven model that works. It’s time for the governor and state lawmakers to provide it with the sustainable, 21st-century funding it requires." @NYSenate @NYSA_Majority: We join @JosephsHouse_74, SAVE #NYSSHP!

No one can build supportive housing where it’s most needed with the current seven-year-old rates! INCREASE ESSHI! #savesupportivehousing #supportivehousingsaveslives @NYSenate @NYSA_Majority @theNetworkNY

"If the state fails to invest in services we will lose units as fast as we build them, if not faster & the state will merely tread water in its quest to #endhomelessness" @GALVAREZNYC @NYSenatorRivera @NYSA_Majority save NYSSHP, create a preservation fund! https://t.co/X4tVEkI4ON

“We shouldn’t be coming back year after year. ... We shouldn’t have to fight for this. You have to be giving people money to be able to live.”@MHANYSCEO @MHAacrossNYS in @timesunion. We need an 8.5% COLA! @NYSenate @NYSA_Majority @theNetworkNY https://t.co/hQXO74BVas

"#Supportivehousing workers funded by NYSSHP grants are one paycheck away from being in the same shoes as the formerly homeless people we serve. Many of us rely on PA to get by." @NYSenate @NYSA_Majority must increase NYSSHP! @theNetworkNY https://t.co/YQoUtJ1LqM

[Win @WINNYC_ORG]

Essential human services workers are still vastly underpaid, resulting in huge staffing shortages, impacting vulnerable NYers. The state needs to provide this critical workforce with an 8.5% COLA to begin addressing this unfair gap. #JustPay @NYSenate @NYSA_Majority @theNetworkNY

[Walt Gersón (@waltergerson.bsky.social)🗽 @WalterGerson]

.@AMDeLosSantos72 U rep @VOAgny’s Richard F Salyer House a program for #veterans & formerly homeless adults. Help preserve existing units by creating a flexible preservation fund so we don't lose desperately needed supportive housing! @NYSenate @NYSA_Majority, @theNetworkNY

[Acacia Network @AcaciaNetwork]

The oldest state #supportivehousing program NYSSHP's funding has not been increased in 30yrs. Nearly 20K formerly homeless households are served under it -1/2 of whom are solely dependent on it for services funding. @NYSenate @NYSA_Majority we must save NYSSHP! @theNetworkNY

[Joelle Ballam-Schwan @joballam]

The oldest state supportive housing program, NYSSHP, funds 20K units, but is only 1/5th the contract rates of the current ESSHI program. This drastic underfunding is forcing dedicated staff to leave the workforce. We must save NYSSHP! @NYSenate @NYSA_Majority @theNetworkNY
