Thank you Commissioner @ahmedtigani.bsky.social & Elizabeth Strojan for your advocacy. Cutting Section 8 during a severe housing crisis would put over 10M nationwide, incl. surviors of #DomesticViolence who rely on this critical program for safe, stable housing, at risk.

Thaiasia Johnson, Program Director, is urging NY leaders to include #DomesticViolence program staff in inflationary wage increases. These workers help 1000s of survivors rebuild their lives. Without fair pay, this vital work is at risk. It’s time to pass S1580/A2590!

“If we lose this funding, it will get people killed."

Our CEO, Nicole Branca, spoke to @fortune.com about the devastating impact HUD cuts could have on #DomesticViolence survivors. Housing is the foundation for safety, stability, and healing.

If that funding is lost, survivors and their children would either be back in a shelter or back with their abuser, said New Destiny chief executive Nicole Branca.

Many families could lose their homes because the funding shortfall would be so severe that some housing agencies would have no choice but to end families’ ongoing assistance. www.cbpp.org/research/hou...
To Better Meet Record Levels of Need, Keep Families Housed, Congress Must Increase 2025 Funding for Housing Assistance | Center on Budget and Policy Priorities
