ANHD remains committed to maintaining strong rent stabilization protections for tenants, and organizing for better code enforcement to hold bad actors accountable. Check out the report at cssny.org.
New survey data from @cssnyorg.bsky.social shows that regulation does not cause poor living conditions: low-income regulated and market-rate tenants report similar levels of building distress.

Did you know that community development corporations (CDCs) started in NYC, when communities rebuilt their own neighborhoods after the market and the government had abandoned them? Swipe to read about why we must invest in preserving this crucial source of housing. Learn more: anhd.org/preservation
Today, many nonprofit housing providers are in financial distress. Without real investment, families like Consuelo’s risk losing both their homes and the services that keep them safe.

When Consuelo and her children fled domestic violence, they needed more than a roof. They needed safety and a chance to rebuild. That is what @newdestinyhousing.org provides: affordable housing along with support and services for survivors and their children across NYC.
Nonprofit housing organizations have been the backbone of NYC communities for decades. Now they're at a preservation cliff—rising operating costs and accumulated arrears are threatening their survival. If these organizations fail, tenants lose their affordable and safe housing.

Alarming findings here from @anhdnyc.bsky.social, as reported by @smaldo.bsky.social: two generations of investment in creating and preserving affordable housing is slipping away as costs outstrip rent collections.
