Mayor de Blasio announces his plan to restructure homeless services at a press conference in the Bronx on Monday, April 11.
‘As we start to pick up the pieces from the last 15 months, we have the opportunity to build back better. We refuse to go back to normal, because normal was broken. We cannot continue to warehouse people in overcrowded shelters or police people in the streets with no plan to move them into permanent housing.’
