“CityFHEPS is one of our most effective tools to keep people in their homes, prevent evictions, and transition people out of the shelter system into permanent housing. This announcement to allow CityFHEPS to be used outside of New York City is a positive step that will help longtime New Yorkers find housing and economic stability. It will be important to ensure that there are clear policies on transfers to allow New Yorkers with CityFHEPS vouchers to move back within our city. We look forward to continuing to work with the Administration to ensure the successful implementation of this program.”
