“Gilbert Taylor began the important work of transitioning DHS away from the failed Bloomberg era policies – focusing instead on moving homeless New Yorkers into permanent housing.

“As New York continues to grapple with near record homelessness, we hope this review and reorganization will address the front end of the single adult shelter system and allow the most marginalized and vulnerable of our neighbors to come in off the streets and get the help they need.”
