On June 22nd, Concern Housing joined project partners and elected officials to celebrate the opening of a new affordable and supportive residence, Estella Housing. Located in Nassau County, this new residence is creating 95 affordable apartments, including 42 supportive for individuals and veterans experiencing homelessness. On-site support services are provided by Concern Housing and are funded by the Empire State Supportive Housing Initiative (ESSHI) administered by the NYS Office of Mental Health.
At the ribbon cutting, Concern Housing Executive Director Ralph Fasano said, “I want to thank Governor Hochul, Mayor Waylyn Hobbs, Jr., New York State Homes and Community Renewal, the New York State Office of Temporary and Disability Assistance, the New York State Office of Mental Health, Empire State Development, the Village of Hempstead, Nassau County, and Bank of America for their partnership and support in making Estella Housing possible. This was a long process, and it took a real commitment from all of our partners to get us here.”
