Identifying a potential candidate for my city has become a conundrum of sorts. As a service provider in the New York City shelter system, I can’t help but wonder who will be the voice for the homeless New Yorker, whose face is becoming less prominent and phased out by Citi Bikes and sports arenas.
Which candidate will provide the assurance needed to assist the families who enter New York Cities DHS shelter system on a daily basis with the hope for sustainable housing and employment services and the assistance that they will need in order to reside in a city with skyrocketing rent and a disconnect to the families who spend all or most of their income on housing needs only?
