Welcome to the website of New York City Council Member Crystal Hudson.
Crystal Hudson is the Council Member for New York City’s District 35 in Brooklyn, representing the neighborhoods of Crown Heights, Prospect Heights, Fort Greene, and Clinton Hill. A lifelong Brooklynite, she was first elected in 2021 and has served as co-chair of both the LGBTQIA+ Caucus and the Black, Latino & Asian Caucus in the New York City Council. Crystal passed the second most bills among all new members during her first term and the most bills of any Council Member during her second term. Crystal was propelled into public service after almost a decade of caring for her late mother, who had Alzheimer’s disease. She is committed to making New York City the best place to grow older, and city government more accessible for more people. She currently serves as chair of the Committee on General Welfare, with oversight of the Department of Social Services (including the Human Resources Administration and Department of Homeless Services). Crystal lives in Brooklyn with her wife and daughter.
