Homeowners in areas battered by climate disasters are facing dizzying insurance rate increases. But builders of housing for the homeless and other low-income families are also struggling.
"Don't let the fear stop you. Achieve early. A lot of people in the able-bodied world will tell you to wait ... Most of the time, I think it's because they're afraid that if something doesn't go right for you, you will fall apart. I say to you, do things early." -Michael Rogers, a prominent self-advocate in Buffalo and Regional Organizer for the Self Advocacy Association of New York State https://buff.ly/46cc1t3
Let’s celebrate the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) 34th Anniversary! The ADA works to ensure all people with disabilities have the same rights and opportunities as everyone else. Services for the UnderServed #ADA34 #ThanksToTheADA
S:US is proud to support the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) 34th Anniversary. On July 26, we celebrate this important civil rights law that prohibits discrimination against people with disabilities in all areas of life, including jobs, schools, transportation, and all public and private places that are open to the general public. The purpose of the law is to make sure that people with disabilities have the same rights and opportunities as everyone else. We honor and celebrate the diversity of people with disabilities – those with physical, intellectual/developmental disabilities, people with mental illness, and those with undiagnosed disabilities. We are dedicated to helping people lead their best lives by creating opportunities for meaningful relationships, full integration into the community, and personal growth. Let's commemorate the ADA by continuing to advocate for a world where everyone, regardless of ability, can thrive and participate fully in society. Together, we can build a future that is inclusive, accessible, and supportive for all. #ADA34 #ThanksToTheADA
From building affordable and supportive housing for people who have been homeless, including veterans, to healthy food distribution programs in underserved communities, to health clinics serving people with mental health and substance challenges -- none of it would be possible without the support of our funders and generous donors, which now includes S:UStainers. Please join the growing group of S:UStainers by making a gift of $1 a day, or a recurring donation of any amount. Together, let's build a brighter future for New Yorkers in need.

Several affordable housing landlords are fighting back against skyrocketing insurance rates with a new strategy that they say will get costs under control and improve conditions for tenants: insuring themselves.
S:US is proud to share that we have successfully closed on the acquisition of four pre-war tenements in Hell’s Kitchen. With our partners, SMJ Development and High Point Property Group, we plan to fully update and renovate the building, preserving homes for the 11 existing rent-stabilized tenants while converting the remaining 69 units into affordable housing for homeless families under a CityFHEPS rental assistance contract.
