“We have tenants who have experienced abuse & have children. How much does the State pay for security? Zero. Tenants have abusers who know where they live & have zero security,” @newdestinyhousing.bsky.social’s Nicole Branca on urgent need for increased NYSSHP funding. #savesupportivehousing
“NYS has over 62K #supportivehousing units. Who benefits from this? Everyone benefits. Communities benefit. The individual, their families, & their children all benefit.” Assembly Member Maritza Davila at our #NetworkLobbyDay25 press conference. #savesupportivehousing #supportivehousingsaveslives
“Two weeks ago the bathroom ceiling caved in our building. We need to take good care of our older people & one another,” Tenant Advocate Loretta Glover at #NetworkLobbyDay25 press conference re: desperate need for increased funding for 1st generation supportive housing. #savesupportivehousing
“First generation #supportivehousing program, NYSSHP, hasn’t seen a funding increase in 40 yrs. As a result, 9K units are at-risk of going offline. Now is not the time for inaction. NYers deserve more.” @pascalel.bsky.social kicks off our #NetworkLobbyDay25 press conference. #savesupportivehousing
