Watch CHPC present findings and recommendations from A New Lens for NYC’s Housing Plan: Housing Plan for LGBTQ+ Communities.

NYC owes its primacy as world destination for LGBTQ+ activism, culture, and history to the LGBTQ+ New Yorkers who have found community in our city for decades.
CHCP hosted a policy webinar to celebrate Pride 2021 and the release of Housing Plan for LGBTQ+ Communities, the latest installment in CHPC’s A New Lens for NYC’s Housing Plan report series. CHPC was joined by panel of guest speakers to explore how housing policy can be leveraged to secure the future of New York City as a haven for LGBTQ+ communities.

A New Lens for NYC’s Housing Plan
This event is part of A New Lens for NYC’s Housing Plan, CHPC’s research and education initiative to explore how New York City’s next housing plan could have a broader impact beyond counting units. The next housing plan provides an opportunity for communities and policymakers to widen the discussion, articulate new metrics, and develop a shared vision of housing policy for the city.
