WSFSSH was featured in a @nytimes article on parking garage redevelopment. Our ED Paul Freitag shared a different vision: “If you have an older parking garage that is not structurally sound, that would be a great site for affordable housing.” https://t.co/bqmOHymejK

WSFSSH Exec Director Paul Freitag was featured in the @nytimes on the renewed conversation around SROs. He noted that while SROs can broaden housing options, they’re often challenging for older adults with mobility or privacy needs. https://t.co/Ten07a54au

A few weeks ago we held our second Tech Expo of the year at the Red Oak Older Adult Center. More than 170 older adults joined us for tech learning, MTA demos, free phones, OMNY and MyChart. Thank you to the Red Oak staff, our partners and the volunteers who made it possible.

Nonprofits ensure that everyone, regardless of who they are or where they come from, can make a home in New York City. I support #TheHeartofNY because everyone deserves to have a safe place to live and work.
