The Network, as part of the Campaign 4 NY/NY Housing, wrote Governor Cuomo a letter asking for a substantial additional commitment to supportive housing.

The Campaign 4 NY/NY Housing (the “Campaign”) wrote Governor Cuomo a letter on February 3, 2015 acknowledging the tragedy of record homelessness in New York City and requesting a much more substantial commitment to addressing this dire need.  The 5,000 units of supportive housing statewide announced by the Governor in his Executive Budget are a positive seed to this effort, but we need much more.

The Network is one of nearly 200 organizations signing on to this critical effort.

The letter outlined the desperate need for a much greater commitment to supportive housing in addition to these 5,000 units. The Network supports the Campaign's ask of 30,000 units in NYC, and requests an additional 5,000 units upstate.
