Tenants Begin Moving into East Clarke Place Senior Residence in the Bronx
An article in the Bronx Times features one of the first tenants to move into East Clarke Place Senior Residence—68-year-old Demetrio Rivera—and outlines how VOA-Greater New York is working to end homelessness in the Greater New York area by 2050 through affordable housing projects like this one.
“Homelessness doesn’t need to be an evergreen issue,” said Myung J. Lee, president and CEO of Volunteers of America-Greater New York. “We’re an anti-poverty organization that aims to get rid of homelessness…through three steps—housing, generational wealth-building and providing services to address mental and physical health.”
