We joined @theNetworkNY + ~100 supportive housing providers & allies statewide in sending a letter to @GovKathyHochul to bring outdated #supportivehousing program NYSSHP out of the dark ages to preserve 9K at-risk apts. Read here: https://t.co/7qGKeYd65g #savesupportivehousing
"W/o proper investment, older units could grow costlier, or disappear entirely, just as new ones are being introduced.” Lymaris Albors @AcaciaNetwork in @timesunion. This is why we need funding in the NYS preservation plan to modernize #supportivehousing! https://t.co/ETDcgj6Zng
HSI joined @theNetworkNY and hundreds of other human services workers today at City Hall to demand fair pay by our government funders in NYC. End poverty wages NOW. Show your support and learn more at https://t.co/CnaKnFdssY
"We must ensure funding for more staff for HRA to fill #supportivehousing vacancies. We now have vacancy rates over 10%. I can’t describe the human costs of people living longer on the streets & in shelter but the cost is about 500K/vacancy."Jim Dill @hsiny@NYCCouncil GW hearing
"By severely curtailing the supportive housing development, these cuts will cost the city even more. Supportive housing saves lives." -Jim Dill, @hsiny at NYC Council finance hearing. @NYCMayor Don't cut the HPD capital budget!
