Today marks the one-year anniversary of the formal launch of Human.nyc!

Since we launched the "journey map" one year ago, we've fought to bring the voices & ideas from the streets to the forefront of policy conversations on homelessness.

We spent the last year working to introduce unsheltered homeless New Yorkers to lawmakers & media 📣.

Our goal was to show @NYCMayor that the services that people want and need (housing) are too scarce & too difficult to access, and that people are NOT "service resistant."
First, we introduced our friends Charmian, Todd, & Tabby to @Gregbsmithnyc @THECITYNY. They shared their experiences with outreach teams, and the challenges of proving they are "chronically homeless."

It was the first time this process was ever covered:
