HUD's new funding criteria has put 14K units of #supportivehousing in NYS in jeopardy. “This [NOFO] represents probably the most dramatic shift in homelessness policy in a generation,” Network ED @pascalel.bsky.social in @crainsnewyork.bsky.social: www.crainsnewyork.com/health-pulse...

“We have been talking about [supportive housing] for decades and that’s because it is effective," said reporter David Brand on @thebrianlehrershow.bsky.social Listen here: www.wnyc.org/story/suppor...

HUD funding is cut by 44% in Trump’s FY26 budget, threatening to dismantle Section 8 rental assistance. Thousands of low-income families could lose stable housing if Congress allows these cuts. Contact your representative today to #StopTheFederalCuts endhomelessness.org/action/act-n...

“By providing more precise data on unit types & locations, it will equip us to develop data-driven solutions & create housing that is truly responsive to needs of prospective #supportivehousing residents,” our Director of Policy in @gothamist.com re: new legislation: gothamist.com/news/to-fill...

President's executive order on homelessness threatens to end #supportivehousing as we know it. The housing first model works, and dismantling it will set NYC back decades. Read more in a new @gothamist.com piece featuring @thenetworkny.bsky.social Read more here- bit.ly/3VFqXv0

The reason housing 1st hasn’t ended all homelessness is bc there hasn’t been enough funding for it. “The model is only as good as the resources that are committed to it,” Fred Shack @urbanpathways.bsky.social in @gothamist.com: gothamist.com/news/a-new-t... We must fully fund housing!

“Housing is the 1st ingredient needed to stabilize someone's life after homelessness. Once you have that housing, then you need access to robust services that are tailored to your needs." our Chief Policy Officer Rebecca Zangen in @gothamist.com. #housingisahumanright gothamist.com/news/a-new-t...
