“The Urban Resource Institute (URI) has historically been a partner in ensuring quality of life and dignity for survivors in my district and across Brooklyn who are looking for stability and housing after experiencing both economic hardships and domestic violence,” said Council Member Louis. “I am thrilled to be a part of this effort to bring together leading voices in the industry to expand safe spaces for survivors while also discussing the crises of gender-based violence and homelessness to develop the effective policies and investments in our communities. I thank URI for hosting this historic panel discussion, which affirms the significance of emphasizing survivors’ perspectives and experiences in our pursuit for safety and healing.”
