The Coalition for the Homeless and The Legal Aid Society have launched the “Housing is the Solution" campaign to challenge misconceptions about homelessness in New York City. While the number of households without homes is at an all-time high, homelessness is solvable through comprehensive solutions like affordable housing, rental assistance, and targeted policies. NYC must take action to ensure a #HomeForAllNYC.
For more than 40 years, the Coalition for the Homeless has developed and implemented humane, cost-effective strategies to end mass homelessness in New York City. Their model programs represent solutions that can dramatically reduce the homeless population and prevent homelessness among those most at risk.
