The Open Hearts Initiative builds and highlights community support for housing and services for homeless New Yorkers by organizing housed community residents to advocate for housing justice in their own backyards. We use our voices and resources to support homeless New Yorkers and make our communities stronger, more integrated, and more equitable — because everybody deserves a place to call home. We have several chapters in neighborhoods across the city.

I'm not sure yet!

What skills, connections, etc do you have that might help the cause? E.g., do you know graphic design or social media management? Are you a writer or photographer? Do you have connections to someone who could donate bulk items? Do you have resources you could contribute to the work? Let us know!

Do you speak any non-English languages? (Even if you can only carry on a simple conversation, that can still be a useful skill as we work to connect with neighbors!)
