Point Source Youth’s ending youth #homelessness program launched in seven states, including New York. It gave one-time cash payments between $645 and $9,900 to young people at imminent risk of losing their #housing towards housing costs, food or other bills. Early results from the pilot show it worked. (fb)

Thank you to the #volunteers from Diligent Corporation who built new garden bedframes, filled them with soil, and planted gooseberries, squash, cucumbers, and tomatoes; and removed some overgrown trees and plants to become wildflower gardens. Their efforts made such a difference to the outdoor space of our #supportivehousing residence in the Bronx. The residents and the staff are excited to care for, grow, and eventually, harvest the fruit and vegetables that they planted. (fb)
