Today, we're giving domestic violence survivors hope with Project Home, a pilot program to provide housing assistance to domestic violence survivors living in shelter.

We're also expanding eligibility for supportive and affordable housing for survivors. Learn more:

Originating from a landmark court ruling, it's evolved into a worldwide movement challenging misconceptions about sexual violence. TODAY, wear 👖 denim to support survivors at the #DenimDay Queens Resource Fair & Panel. Let's unite in solidarity and create lasting change.

In partnership with New Destiny Housing, Mayor Eric Adams launches Project Home, providing rapid housing assistance to domestic violence survivors in shelter. DV is a leading cause of homelessness in NYC, & through this program we’re connecting more survivors with safe, permanent housing.

An aftershock earthquake has occurred in the NYC area. Residents are advised to remain indoors and to call 911 if injured. More info: bit.ly/3vMVLRe

LATEST: All city agencies and our partners at the state and federal level continue to monitor the aftermath of the earthquake that was felt this morning in New York City.

I held a briefing with agency officials to provide an update this afternoon. Here's what to know:

If you are in danger, please dial 911. To report non-emergency issues please call 311. Communicate your status so others know you’re okay. Text messages are more likely to go through when phone lines are busy. Check on your neighbors if safe to do so.

Please follow NYCEM - Notify NYC.

In case of an aftershock, drop to the floor, cover your head and neck, and take additional cover under a solid piece of furniture, next to an interior wall, or in a doorway.

We will be updating the public very soon with additional updates.

New York City just felt the impacts of a 4.8 magnitude earthquake with an epicenter of Lebanon, New Jersey.

Mayor Eric Adams is being briefed. While we do not have any reports of major impacts at this time, we’re still assessing the impact.
