Faith communities can help the city add housing

view original post

In our houses of worship, we bear witness firsthand to a crisis impacting our city: housing insecurity. We hear from families facing impossible choices between paying rent and putting food on the table. We see our homeless brothers and sisters coming into our houses for shelter. We talk to our seniors who are afraid that the place they have called home for decades might be slipping through their fingers. Every day, we pray for these New Yorkers.
