Endorse: Protect Homeless From COVID - An Open Letter to Cuomo & de Blasio

  • Leave no one hungry
  • Use vacant hotels & SRO's to ensure safety for those in shelters and on the street
  • House the homeless NOW!
  • Enforce safety measures and increase support in all shelters
  • Ensure access to quality healthcare.
