In particular\, we are wrestling with this issue in our very own neighborhood on the Upper West Side. In this session\, we will look at homelessness as a systemic problem in our city and explore how we got to the place we are in today. Speakers will also address how homelessness intersects with other issues such as public health and mental health\, and incarceration; and what factors race and racism play in responses to increased homelessness. \nJoin us for an educational forum that will bring together stories from speakers who have both personal & professional experience with homelessness. \nSpeakers:\nNazerine Griffin\, Facility Director at Peter Sharpe Center for Opportunity\, The DOE Fund\nMuzzy Rosenblatt\, CEO and President\, Bowery Residents Committee\nModerated by Sophie House\, Legal Fellow and the Jonathan Mechanic/Fried\, Frank\, Shriver & Jacobson Fellow\, NYU Furman Center \nRegister Here\nThis event is co-sponsored by Ansche Chesed\, BASE Manhattan\, B’nai Jeshurun\, Darkhei Noam\, The Jewish Center\, The Joseph Stern Center for Social Responsibility at Marlene Meyerson JCC of Manhattan\, Kehilat Rayim Ahuvim\, SAJ-Judaism that Stands for All\, Romemu  URL:https://bj.org/event/the-crisis-of-homelessness-in-new-york-city-an-educational-forum/ LOCATION:Remote Access Only\, NY\, United States ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://bj.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/maks-1.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="B'nai Jeshurun":MAILTO:info@bj.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20201026T150000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20201026T170000 DTSTAMP:20201014T161106Z CREATED:20200925T192936Z LAST-MODIFIED:20201014T161106Z UID:10003490-1603724400-1603731600@bj.org SUMMARY:Phone Banking Marathon with Reclaim our Vote DESCRIPTION:The UWS Voter Engagement Coalition is following up on our successful Turnout Tuesdays with a phone banking marathon the week leading up to the November 3 election.

Each session will take place on Zoom and begin with a training led by a Reclaim our Vote volunteer\, followed by phone banking.
