Note: This event is organized by VOCAL-NY.

More than 150,000 people in New York State are homeless, and 175,000 households are at risk of eviction. The Housing Access Voucher Program (HAVP) would create a statewide rental subsidy to help folks get housed and stay housed. New Yorkers need HAVP in this year’s state budget (set to pass on April 1st)--but Governor Hochul is holding it up! On Thursday, March 27 at 11am, join other Open Hearts members and coalition partners organized by VOCAL-NY to rally for the Housing Access Voucher Program outside Governor Hochul’s NYC office!

Let us know you’re coming by emailing sara@openheartsinitiative.org, and we’ll connect you with any other Open Hearts folks who will be there.

Can’t make it on Thursday 3/27, but want to advocate for HAVP? Join our postcard-writing event.
