Outreach

As part of the City's HOME-STAT outreach efforts, the most comprehensive homeless outreach initiative in the country, outreach staff and clinicians canvass the five boroughs 24/7/365, engaging New Yorkers experiencing unsheltered homelessness, and offering them tailored services and supports that can help them transition off the streets and subways indoors.


Audio Description: HOME-STAT’s Street Outreach teams reach out to various unsheltered individuals.

Man and Woman speaker: We are out 24/7, 365 days a year, in every borough. And we're committed to finding every person living on the streets. Stability and permanent housing can be a reality. But it can take anywhere from one to two hundred contacts to bring someone indoors. It's not easy, but changing lives never is. If you see someone in need, please call 311 or use the 311 app.
