  • The Council of the City of New York
    THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NEW YORK May 26, 2016 Honorable Mayor Bill de Blasio City Hall New York, NY 10007 Dear Mayor de Blasio, More and more nonprofit groups are operating with deficits and we’ve seen a growing number of them close. This is largely due to systemic under-funding from government contracts. A 2.5% increase on the OTPS (“Other Than Personnel Services”) line of city contracts with nonprofits would begin to offer some critical budget relief and help them pay for important items – such as equipment, books, paper, food, technology, rent, and staff development – that many have been unable to invest in for years. This would offer funding for approximately 3,700 contracts for community services including afterschool, senior centers, homeless and domestic violence shelters, child care, mental health clinics, and more. We are asking the Administration to fund $25 million annually to reflect the 2.5% increase in OTPS. Over the past year, the Committee on Contracts held two hearings which revealed the impact of this systemic under-funding. We learned that the budgets of half of New York City human services providers are in the red or barely breaking even. More troubling still is the fact that these contract service providers are one of the largest employment sectors in the City, and an overwhelming majority of employees are women and people of color, with women representing four out of every five workers. As we move towards adopting the budget, we ask that the Administration baseline this annual OTPS cost. Respectfully, Helen Rosenthal, Steve Levin Margaret S.

    The Geography—and New Politics—of Housing in New York City Public Housing Tom Waters, Community Service Society of New York, November 2018 The 178,000 public housing apartments owned and operated by the New York City Housing Authority are often de- scribed as “a city within a city.” The Community Service Society has estimated the numbers of public housing apartments for the New York City portion of each legislative district in the city.

  • More Space to Grow Together
    More space to grow together India Home’s Capital Campaign 2018 “We thank our Borough President Melinda Katz, and Council Members Barry Grodenchik, I. Daneek Miller & RoryLancman for their generous support of our capital grant.” President’s Letter Dear Friends: India Home has made an immense stride this past year in advancing its goal to serve the elderly South Asian community, as is evident from the ever-growing enthusiastic attendance of seniors at four loca- tions in Queens. We currently provide services every week to over 200 seniors from all different faiths, nationalities and linguistics groups. India Home strives to serve these individuals in a culturally sensitive environment by providing social, recreational, psychological and spiritual services in order to improve the quality of life. India Home, an established premier institution, has carved a niche in the South Asian community for pro- viding health and wellness programs, recreation activities, case management services, technological lit- eracy, and advocacy and awareness campaigns. India Home delivers these programs through committed collaborations with existing senior centers, faith-based institutions, government programs and university partnerships. India Home’s services are recognized by governmental agencies and elected officials with whom an excellent rapport has been built up over the years by our committed Board. Our recent NYC government capital grant of nearly $ 1.5 million for the acquisition of a property was a major milestone in our growth. We are extremely thankful for the crucial support of the Queens Borough President Melinda Katz, City Council Members Rory Lancman, Barry Grodenchik, and Daneek Miller. We cannot go without mentioning our previous Deputy Director Lakshman Kalasapudi, whose dedica- tion and boundless energy were integral to our collaborations with other not-for-profit organizations, in securing foundation grants, and taking India Home to the next level.

  • 30,000 Homes for Homeless New Yorkers
    30,000 Homes for Homeless New Yorkers Mayor Bill de Blasio City Hall New York, NY 10007 Dear Mayor de Blasio: As fellow elected officials working to build a better New York City for all, we applaud your administration’s efforts to address the city’s ongoing homelessness crisis. However, with a record 63,000 people – including nearly 24,000 children – sleeping in shelters each night, it is clear that more must be done. We must use every available tool at our disposal to reduce the number of New Yorkers relegated to shelters and the streets, and so we are asking the City to double the number of deeply subsidized affordable housing units targeted specifically to families and individuals in shelters. Your Housing New York 2.0 plan commits to creating or preserving an ambitious 300,000 units of affordable housing. Unfortunately, only 15,000 of those units will be dedicated for homeless households – a paltry 5 percent. Furthermore, most of the 15,000 set-aside units in your current plan will be preserved units, not new construction, and thus will not be available for homeless families until they become vacant, which could be years. HPD predicts no more than a few hundred units will be available for occupancy by homeless families in each year of the Housing New York 2.0 plan. With well over 15,000 families and more than 16,000 single adults sleeping in shelters each night, this is nowhere near the level of production necessary to meaningfully reduce record homelessness in New York City. In contrast, in the 1980s, when the shelter census was only a fraction of what it is today, Mayor Ed Koch created nearly 15,700 units of homeless housing – constituting more than 10 percent of the units in his 10-year plan.
