He’s right. This is better. Allowing people to live and die addicted and unsafe on the streets is inhumane.
Do you know them to call them addict a lot of them homeless men and women went to war to fight for the same people who have the nerve to call them addicts what do you think they had to go through and come home and get treated like shit shame on you and the rest of you they came home with mental problems fighting for you and that shit head mayor dam shame.
Addiction is not the only thing that keeps people on the street…
This isn't better, it's more of the same. Those beds are grouped together with no walls to cram as many people as possible. People get beaten and robbed while asleep. It's safer on the streets.
This isnt better.. they will steal and take all your things.
😊 god bless ADAM our savior
Unsafe shelters should be investigated the and the "non-profits" also investigated. They're part of the problem for why the homeless avoid shelters.
Omfg exactly 💯 . So many shelter's are ridiculous I'm surprised he's not addressing the crime's in the shelter!!
Yes you are right about that a lot of them homeless people would rather be on the streets then a shelter.
I'm wondering if these "Safe Haven shelters" are going to be SAFE? I hope they don't mix up people who are stable with those who are mentally ill or drug addicts.
cameras & security.
They do
It’s not they don’t give a fuck I know personally. They put a completely competent person with a mentally deranged person
Hope they are doing back ground checks, making sure violent criminals they just bailed out or let go are not living with other homeless people who are just going through difficulties in life.
Do such searches on illegal migrants getting shelter
I hope they work towards permanent housing for the homeless along with vocational training and mental health treatment to stabilize them and prevent homelessness.
Doesn't look safe to me. Open dorms are dangerous...
💯
Vaccinated ppl more dangerous
So a subway station or a city sidewalk is better than this?
@@nb347 you're alone in the streets in there its like jail you gotta be pn ya ps n qs you probably never even been in a situation where you had to go through this.. because if you did you wouldn't ask that question.
@@youtubecertified9215 been there done that, lived in my car and slept on many people's floors. Grateful for the people that did help me on the way when I was at my worst. But I got my shit together and got myself back on my feet.
This the way the shelters should be .
Very few REALLY help the homeless. Counselors are mean, they only help the ones they want to help. Shelters try to keep you there instead of helping you find permanent housing.
It's ashame but the government doesn't understand .Ppl don't like to live next to each other ppl have mental issues .So unless your start taking care of them mental wise There's no answer.
He's has good hearts . Treat everyone with respect and dignity . All deserve
I rather sleep in those places than sleeping at public places..
it's free..
free showers/ free food
place to sleep
keep u warm.
No he doesn't if he lifted mandate for millionaire sports players and fired folks who were working to take care of their families is wrong all the way around see he didn't mention the Mets owners donated 1.5 million dollars for his campaign he's full of it and it's going to come out soon or later like the 240.000 dollar job he was trying to give his brother and the husband of one of his friends he's a clown a lot of those homeless men went to war and came back with mental health problems and drug use and they feel safer on the streets then they do in a shelter get them help for their mental problems and place them in a decent place for their services they fort for so that clown can have a decent job and place to live he's full of it.
Eighty beds is too little too late there are thousands of homeless people in NY. This is a US problem , when will congree and Senate begin to even address this problem. Let's take some of the money we spend on military and provide permanent housing to those in need.
If they're "Able-bodied," They can work!!
It's a life choice.
It looks clean now but it’s not gonna look like that in a week- it’s not just a roof over their heads or a bed that they need, if they’re using drugs they need detox and then counseling, they all need social workers and mental health specialists to help them learn how to function as a member of society, it’s not as simple as this
Mr. Mayor Eric Adams is doing things step by step. After he will give them services and treatment for their concerns. The advocate homeless coalition doesn't care and it is a scam coalition. I bet you the scam coalition will not go to see Mayor Eric Adams. I support Mayor Eric Adams. God bless you, Mr. Mayor. Amen.
Doing more in 4 months than Deblasio did in 8 years.
Factsss 💯💯💯💯💯
All they need to do is have adequate security and people will be willing Togo to shelters
Take the homeless people to your house if you're complaining its not enough.. Adams is trying!
Factsss!
Dang. That place looks nicer than some homes I know.
No it doesn’t, you have no privacy. It’s not a shelter, or a dignified place to stay
Looks like the same thing why not give them a home
This man is making a huge effort at cleaning up the problem and doing it with dignity and that something rarely seen with the usual players 🤔
😊 yes thank god for this man thats when u have a black mayor see hes for the people :D god bless his heart
THIS WAS NEEDED YEARS AGO, CLEAN STREETS, WE HAVE TO MAKE THEM ACCOUNTABLE TO THRIVE...NO MATTER WHAT...
It's a huge task - permanently housing people who have nothing but the clothes on their backs and what they carry with them. Plus, they have serious health issues a d no support. I hope we acknowledge this and try to provide them with social services THAT WORK and other needs.
I agree, they need way more than just the basics to recover and become a member of society- many of them use drugs which means they will need detox and then counseling, others need to be seen for their physical health and mental health, there is so much more that these folks need that they don’t even know they need. This just feels like a bandaid and performative but I hope it does something positive
Those that just dont want to do better they refused to because they dont want to pay bills ect. Especially that has income, they just cope with life on drugs and alcohol. When they keep going sleeping under Bridget's and or fighting attacking people or putting themselves in dangerous situations. I seen a
Shelter called the Mission in Rockford, I'll had those people arrested because they said they were a danger to themselves and the community. Those staff member did not mistress or hurt the homeless. They would been over backwards for them. They had one side of the build living drug treatment for men the other side of a big building for woman. And another location for families and children. They worked with low income housing program and landlords within the city.
I feel happy about what the mayor is doing . 🙌 I wish him all the best in his life . Is a person is a mayor .
Eric Adams 🌈🍑🎂
Totally agree with you
Mayor Adams is a smart thinker. Much needed.
How do you feel about him now 😂
@@Brooklynlife1000 I am very disappointed in him
@@aidankateri I hear ya. It's frightening what he is doing to the city across the board on so many levels. His ego works harder than his hands and he is sending us spiraling down into hell.
Permanently housed means get off your butt and go work, not freebies for life.
I know every situation is different yet at lease work at getting in a place's. Until they get in a safe place. Do not put them in dangerous location.
the 2 beds nextti each other not a good thing...
This is a shelter not the Ritz Carlton let's get real here. The shelter is not designed as a permanent living space.
The only thing scarier than sleeping outside, is sleeping in a room full of people with mental disorders and infectious diseases.
This is absolutely horrible. Either give these people real homes/apartments/studios, or leave them the HELL alone.
Why on earth would you go out of your way to design a NEW homeless shelter to look like a damn prison?
Build ROOMS. It's not that hard. ONE PERSON TO A ROOM. HUMANS DESERVE HUMAN DECENCY. Humans in 2023 are NOT used to sleeping comunally 50 people to a room. this type of environment encourages people's drama, crime, violence, and theft. THIS IS HORRIBLE AND ILLOGICAL.
Thank you Mayor Adams! Anyone against this should take them into their homes!!
Why the fuck are the beds facing eachother? You can really give people their privacy without taking extra space just by rearranging that wall🤦🏼♂️
You dont like what he's doing? Then you "Advocates " need to come up with better ideas than criticize the mayor for trying. Rome was not built in a day and this won't be done quick either. All good things do take time. Hopefully the short term plan works so that a more final solution is in sight.
What you dont realize is most of these people DONT WANT help! They're happy with themselves and content with how things are
Just get a job and find a place to live. There's no reason the government should force people to pay for this garbage. My money, my choice.
What are they talking about?Homeless in NYC?Pandemic changed things.
I'm not a resident of NY, but it sounds like he's doing a great job as mayor. This is an excellent step towards getting this community the help they need to change their lives. It starts with a safe place to sleep, relax, eat, and get the helpful resources that may be needed to help them in becoming whole again. However, the foundation of their permanent healing, deliverance, and destiny resides in Jesus Christ, whenever they chose to seek Him.
It's also a better system, and safer for citizens who are being violated by those in the homeless communities.👏
It’s people like you that are the actual problem… that keep offering sympathy and giving the less fortunate a pat on the back thinking they’re gonna be on a road to a second chance. We already know the reality of this, 90% of them screw up and end up back in jail or back on the streets and are the ones responsible for the rise of violent of crimes because they are not mentally capable. Unfortunately the only solution is to institutionalize them. It’s the only way to keep innocent people just trying to commute to work safe. You must not have to ride the 2 train everyday and actually see what’s happing out there.
Thank you mayor Adams!!!
Yes, let’s pack them all in with covid still raging… This is the same set up shelters used in 2014 when I was in shelter. This is not new and this setup doesn’t work.
Put covid precautions in there and some nurses to do rounds.
Good.
This is a step in the right direction.
APARTMENTS NEEDED!!!!!!!!
Who's going to pay for those apartments?
@@nb347 Tax payers we literally pay for everything else nothing new or different.
Why Rhode Island don't do the same thing NY IS DOING NOW . ?
I believe this temporary housing approach to the homeless is a great step to fix this problem (but not the only step necessary). There, they'll have the treatment they need readily available and then transition to permanent housing, if at all possible.
Scenario:you lost your job because you declined the poisonous vaccine,can't pay rent,get evicted,get sent to one of these places another pandemic happens or things get chaotic and these buildings become fema camps.
THIS !!!! This is what I’m talking about. At the end of the day it’s not safe or fair for people to be forced to live like this because someone might not want to do something or afraid of the outcome by being in the shelter. Looks damn good and better then shelters I’ve seen (not in the city). It’s sad that there are people out there really saying they have the “ right “ to be on the side of the road. That’s not realistic, no one in their right mind would want that for themselves.
It's Better than nothing untill bail address goes up and out
Like we want to go backwards to boarding school children home layout and staff.
A bail who don't know heard seen nothing or bail address run by probation Police all over the joint, a fuckin joint.
Here's what billyho UK garden shed office £2500/£4000 c or could look like an ISO container Wellcamp RUclips wellcamp staircase UK ISO container homes founder and wellcamp can look anything similar to BillyOh on back to front door walkway balconies..
Get rid of Fentanyl!!
There needs to be mental health facilities. There needs to be more affordable housing, long term supportive housing with a mental health physical health and substance abuse component.
Great Man, doing what Jesus said to do at Matthew 25: 31- 47! Addressing the needs of the homeless, hungry, naked. God will bless his efforts and God bless him in Jesus name!
Why are you dumping everything in the Bronx. why aren’t you using the whole five boroughs, you are dumping everybody in the Bronx even criminals who come out of jail, you’re still Putting them in the Bronx. You should have a comprehensive plan not a patch plan and dumping them in the lowest income and most poverty strict part of the city and that will cause more harm to the Bronx community. You are doing this because most residents of the Bronx are immigrant and minorities, who have no voice to fight for them-and you’re using them to achieve your political ambition you’ll not get my vote again.
In the Bronx? SMH.
Here is Alisa from Keecowsocks ( We producing sport socks for skiing/hiking/running/working). We want to donate some socks to the homeless, how can we contact this shelter?
If those homeless people would just identify as migrants they would be treated like royalty..get all kinds of free stuff...
This is nice, now clean them up train them for a job and create jobs specifically for them were it cant be taken from them by immigrants from other countries, create affordable housing and affordable health care and then your creating a road to culture and civilized humanity.
Good job Adams. We can’t have San Francisco and Los Angeles in NYC! Make it happen!
This lady who has got on this and given her opinion Selena whatever her name is are you coming up with some kind of solution no let me explain something to everybody housing food you're not entitled to it it's something you work for everybody wants their hands out for nothing it's something you work for and once you get it you keep working to obtain it stop with the nonsense about well these people deserve this these people deserve that what are they doing to help themselves stop giving handouts give a hand up and it's a big difference and a lot of people these days feel like they're entitled to something you're not entitled to anything in life you work hard to get it the same way that anybody can go out and get a job I don't want to hear about the pandemic jobs are out there I don't want to hear it now there are some people that are homeless that can't help it mentally disabled physically disabled but people can help themselves I see people out there asking for money 18 19 20 21 22 why because they want something for nothing help those who want to be helped that's all I'm saying and stop saying everybody deserves help those who want to help themselves I deserve a home over my head I go to work everyday help those who want to help themselves I want to better life I go to school help those who want to help themselves stop looking for handouts that's the bottom line and stop advocating giving away stuff to those who don't deserve it bottom line
Mayor Adams saved NYC
So how much does this cost? How many miles of paved road, bridge and school maintenance, how much less can the tax payers get by on?
ALL FREE!!!!!! But can I do MY drugs and drink MY Booze?????
The Staff is the problem especially if you are LGBTQ Black Trans
but they found shelter for those bused immigrants !!?? they can use empty schools
Shelter are horrible and your more private in the street then when your next to someone that you do not know what there going to do to you . Why not a Hotel like you gave the immigrants ?
"Homeless Advocates" are going to whine no matter what. If every homeless person was given their own house, advocates would be like: "But they don't have their own swimming pool!!"
seeing this now they have immigrants living better than Americans in nyc and they have them in hotels near 5th Avenue !
That looks just like prison.. unacceptable
Are you kidding
@@Zubair11230 no it's exactly the same. I did 5 years I rather sleep on the streets than go in that place you get robbed in your sleep and many other things. It is not safe. It was open a few years ago then it got shut down now they just renovated it again it's not NEW like they say.
@@youtubecertified9215 well this shelter is for people who would rather live somewhere warm and covered for the elements. Idk what privilege you come from being able to just say you’d rather be homeless. You probably have a nice bed
Agreed. I thought the same thing when I saw how it looked. At least on the street, those people have their own space.
@@calvinm1866 they were also getting set on fire and shot in the head in the streets..jesus you make no sense
Anyone can get killed in those dorms !! But at the same time beggars can’t be choosers..
NYC is too expensive now. Ppl have to face reality. I
$2,500/mo.
The reason shelters aren’t safe is because of gangs and homeless. It’s a circle of irony.
You made a kids home for adults?
Sectioned off every bed unit locked doors
It’s a start, but you need counseling and security
I hope they still won't be wondering around harassing people.
We aren't safe I'm in Annas place mens shelter and it's disgusting
I just need a place to sleep and help getting into an apartment while i work
Help provide a place for them before u take what they have ....
I wish to join a movement to get the homeless off the streets.
This still don't solve the homeless problem in America.
If they blow this then put them in prison in one of the work camps
Sleeping next to random strangers no thanks 😅
And now migrants. Joke administration.
Aight but don’t shove everyone in the bx
PEOPLE IN GENERAL DESERVE BETTER
You gotta take the homeless out of the city and all the way upstate and put them under supervised rehab and training. . They need to be away as much as possible from the city environment, easier to score drugs again.
Eric Adams !The right direction! Get the homeless off the street they keep attacking people! Ignore them people with opinions if they care so much they would of been so something!!!!! Eric only been the Mayor for few months ! What y’all excuse! He’s trying and in the right direction he’s offering Food , shelter and Medical care !!!! more then your verbal opinion! Team Eric !!!!!!
All the fighting inside those temporary shelters is probably going to be worse than living in the streets. This is an unthoughtful solution.
😂😂😂😆😆😆😆
Hmmmmmm
where is this
I just hope he have workers that care about their jobs otherwise those people will go back to the streets
I worked at the Bowery Safe Heaven. It was crazy. I don't know if it's better than sleeping at grand central or Penn station. There were bed bugs drugs and fights all the time.
Amen
That's right heighten these standards
,u can't get this in a tree"😂😂👍
This is nice. People also should have the right mindset to change, to be out of homelessness. If everything is free, aint nobody gonna get his butt up and actually try to get a job. And give me a break about permanent this and that. Come one, every body gotta get out there and work. It's like every tax payers are working really hard so that they can have a promised life with everything? Just give us a break. Those funds should be used somewhere else for a better cause, after these homeless people got help and finally getting on their own.
I'm feeling him a lil bit
Bout time!

“I AM TAKING CARE OF YOU. Trust Me at all times. Trust Me in all circumstances. Trust Me with all your heart. When you are weary and everything seems to be going wrong, you can still utter these four words: "I trust You, Jesus." By doing so, you release matters into My control, and you fall back into the security of My everlasting arms.
Before you arise from your bed in the morning, I have already arranged the events of your day. Every day provides many opportunities for you to learn My ways and grow closer to Me. Signs of My Presence brighten even the dullest day when you have eyes that really see. Search for Me as for hidden treasure. I will be found by you.”
(JESUS CALLING)
Is he listening to the homeless who are fearful of their safety. Why don't they have individual rooms. How can you ensure that someone will not be violated at night. So, what happens if someone wants to sleep and the light is on. Although, I understand his gesture this is not appropriate.
He Should Live on The Street and See How He Feel
But is he going to make particular s for single moms, single Dad's, single women, men , specifically drug rehab, will they be checked for any weapons? Up here in Rochester NY a guy at a shelter got into scuffle with the cops, armed with a knife begged for the cops to shoot kill him sorry but the cops had no choice. Prayers 🙏 solace ✌️👏💖🌹💋
I am currently homeless. I have never been in a shelter. What can I do? I have reached out to several community-based organizations, but they never pick up the phone.
