Office of Kathy Hochul, Governor for New York – November 04, 2021
Governor Kathy Hochul today announced that construction has begun on a $22 million LGBTQ-affirming supportive housing development for formerly homeless young adults. Known as Homeward Central Harlem, the development will include 50 apartments with on-site supportive services provided by Homeward NYC. Homeward Central Harlem will consist of a single nine-story building with 50 fully furnished studio apartments and one superintendent unit. Residents must be aged 18 to 24 upon entry and will be referred by the Department of Homeless Services, the Department of Youth and Community Development’s Runaway & Homeless Youth program, and the Administration for Children’s Services Foster Care. Housing is non-time limited, meaning residents do not age out on their 25th birthday.
