Hra co tracts with cucs to place the homeless in supported housing. My first match was a disaster. All I get is an sro which is no better than the shelter system itself. The place I saw was a dump.the provider thout a picture of my room and the front door would suffice. My physical handicaps were not addressed in this match not was my choice of boro. So whomever at cucs thought voa-eny was okay you go live there and tell me how you like your 3 roommates, a pathetic efficiency kitchen and a cc camera in the living room.
CUCS responds capably in areas that require creativity and foresight. The CUCS team excels at both devising inventive solutions and skillfully administering projects. I believe there are a great many areas of need that CUCS is in a unique position to fill.
After my husband suddenly passed away, I went into a deep depression and lost my apartment. While bouncing around from place to place, I didn't want to admit I was homeless. I went to city agencies for help in trying to keep my apartment, but that didn't work out and I continued to work with them in trying to find a home. The system was complicated and because of my severe depression I often missed one thing which would reset the situation. I was even in a special program for mentally ill people but nothing was helping. Then I met CUCS, they helped me to navigate supportive housing in NYC and guided me in submitting the necessary forms. They helped set up the interview and get me my apartment, this put me on the right track. I owe my life to CUCS and they are an amazing organization.
