Housed.

CCC advocates to:

• Increase investments in community-based solutions to prevent homelessness that aim to maintain housing stability before a crisis.
• Expand affordable, permanent housing options for low and extremely low-income families with children.
• Strengthen New York’s policies to protect the rights of tenants and mortgage holders to ensure equitable access to rental housing and home ownership.
• Ensure families living in homeless shelters have access to social services, case management and income-building supports, that enable them to move into permanent housing and remain stably housed.
• Improve family shelter conditions to ensure that children living in shelters have access to necessary supports that meet their educational, health, and socio-emotional needs and  to promote their well-being.
