@gothamist.com reports federal cuts could devastate NY supportive housing: “Only 60% of programs currently receiving funding will be renewed for 2027, down from 90% in previous years.” Providers warn the cuts could put housing stability at risk for thousands of New Yorkers.

“This is my community where I feel safe,” ProjectFIND EHV tenant Olga Garcia, told PIX 11. Now, due to federal cuts, Olga may be forced to move over 70 blocks away from her home. These cuts are threatening the housing stability of some of NY's most vulnerable residents. pix11.com/video/trump-...
