An encouraging step for sure! Let’s hope it’s just the beginning of a much larger initiative.
At City Hall, @NYCMayor announces a pilot program (already underway) to move 80 unsheltered homeless New Yorkers directly into city-owned SROs run by the organization Volunteers of America-NY “It’s radical but it’s practical,” he says. It’s a different message than he had…

National survey of homelessness services workforce is starting up. Contact @aykanian for further details about how to participate.
I'm leading a national U.S. survey of people working in agencies/programs that primarily serve people experiencing homelessness/those recently housed after experiencing homelessness. If this is you, and the survey hasn't hit your inbox yet, DM me for the link! PLEASE RETWEET!

Perplexing to me how few people of my over-65 cohort seem to have availed themselves of this effective treatment.
Great opportunity here to learn about @Critical_Time from one of the best!

Sad that these hotels are being closed before residents can be safely relocated to transitional or permanent housing. A tragic missed opportunity to make longterm progress to help unhoused citizens. California is to be applauded for their plans to take hotel conversion to scale.

@NYCMayor Adams should make a bold #HomelessRightsMonth move and order his DHS to switch to the #HousingFirst model. Its inventor @SamTsemberis and researchers @DeborahPadgett5 @danbherman are all in NYC, and I'd add @emmytiderington @JonGiftosMD @DavidFBrand and us to the panel.
