The Supportive Housing Network of New York issued the below statement in response to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) FY2025 Continuum of Care (CoC) Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO). Read on our blog here: lnkd.in/eRs6SDVG

"There are no answers to that," said CARES of NY CEO Michelle Sandoz-Dennis when asked what could fill the gap if CoC permanent housing funding disappears. 9K+ households could lose their homes if Congress does not act & protect our most vulnerable neighbors.

"The admin's plan would be a draconian & nonsensical rollback of the very solution that has ended homelessness for people in every state in our country, & would threaten the tenancies of many more."

#10Days10Reasons #SupportiveHousingSavesLives Supportive Housing is a Lifeline. “Supportive housing = home + care. Tenants get keys, stability, and a chance to rebuild." In 10 days, Congress must protect this lifeline. #HandsOffHousing

Today we’re launching #10Days10Reasons #SupportiveHousingSavesLives — a 10-day countdown to the expiration of the the current federal budget deal. Permanent #supportivehousing is on the line. We’re spotlighting 10 reasons Congress must act NOW to protect it.

“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...

The State promised. #Nonprofits delivered. Now we’re left waiting – for months – for millions of $$ in late payments, contract registration, and more. Nonprofits can’t survive on broken promises! @governor.ny.gov, sign S.7001/A.7616! #FairContractsNow #StandWithNonprofits

"The problem is not that Housing First doesn't work. The problem is that stigma prevents proven solutions like Housing First from receiving the type of modest, sustained, national investment that will solve the problem."
