WNYC and Gothamist Highlight Innovative Street to Home Program

Gothamist and WNYC highlighted VOA-GNY’s Street-to-Home pilot program, featuring accounts of people who have benefitted from the program.

VOA-GNY’s innovative “housing first” pilot program was the subject of a detailed write-up in Gothamist and a radio report on WNYC.

Street to Home client Angel Quiles says, “I was sleeping on the trains. I didn’t have a place to go. I don’t have much family. And one day I just decided it was too much. I don’t want to die so I decided I should get help. It’s probably the best thing I’ve ever done for myself.”
