 • Local Shelters:
• Together with our not-for-profit partners, our mission is to prevent homelessness
when possible, address street homelessness, provide safe temporary shelter, and
connect New Yorkers experiencing homelessness to suitable housing. We do this
with accountability, empathy, and equity.

work at DHS. Through this approach, we focus on the following critical objectives:
• To increase the number of households prevented from becoming homeless
• To reduce the number of individuals living on city streets
• To ensure the availability of temporary, emergency shelter for individuals and
families with no other housing options available to them
• To increase client engagement and responsibility in moving to permanent housing
• To maintain shelter safety and sanitation
• To reduce clients' length of stay in shelter
• To ensure that those who exit shelter remain stably housed in the community
