The election of New York City’s next mayor and City Council is on the horizon. So, as this change approaches, we want to consider what homelessness policy issues the next administration needs to prioritize. We are bringing together a panel of experts to address these pressing issues. In addition, they will discuss how we can all push the new administration to create a policy agenda explicitly focused on ending homelessness.

The panel will explore various topics, such as housing, health care, feeder systems, family homelessness, and much more.
