Upper East Side Community Board Overwhelmingly Votes In Favor Of Opening Safe Haven For Homeless Individuals
Welcomed with open arms by the Eastside Taskforce for Homeless Outreach and Services, co-founded by city councilmember Ben Kallos.
“There’s a lot of folks in the neighborhood, we have probably a dozen or so, that everybody knows. They’ve got their spot, and this will help get all the homeless folks off the streets and into a room with a place to sleep and be safe, warm and fed each night,” Kallos said.
