Notice Details

The Department of Homeless Services works to prevent homelessness before it occurs, address street homelessness, and assist New Yorkers in transitioning from shelter and street homelessness to permanent housing. DHS collaborates with non-profit partners to provide temporary shelter and services that homeless New Yorkers need to achieve and maintain housing permanency.  In addition to locating viable housing, the Tier II residence program stabilizes the family and promotes the move to independent living. Additionally, Non-Tier II certified residences would be expected to provide the same services as those listed above while certification as a Tier II is pending. The goals and objectives of these shelters are to provide transitional housing for families with children without other housing options, as well as services that help secure viable housing in the community and maintain independent living arrangements. 90-10 Ditmars Boulevard, East Elmhurst, NY 11369 (Round 15) 288 units.
