Empire Justice Center Calls For A Hike In Public Assistance Grant
New York’s Public Assistance grant amounts (shelter, basic grant) have not been updated in decades and are completely inadequate. There are no rental units in the private market priced at or below the Shelter Allowance. Haley Kulakowski and Susan Antos, attornies with the Empire Justice Center, discusses the need to raise the welfare grant with Mark Dunlea for Hudson Mohawk Magazine.
