NYC Department of Housing Preservation & Development’s Post

Transcript

I'm here today as acting commissioner of New York City Department of Housing Preservation Development. It's a new title, but at its core, the job has not changed. When I walk through the doors of HPD each morning, I focus on three things. First, my job is to care. To believe deeply that housing isn't a privilege. It is a necessity to treat everyone who needs our help like they could be your parents or friends or even my son. Second, my job is to take action. Not just to talk about solutions, but to deliver them. Every single day so that more New Yorkers can find stability, security, and a real pass forward. Third, my job is to build momentum because this work doesn't happen overnight and the progress we make today is what we'll put more families into homes tomorrow. I Commitment HD's commitment is to not just set ambitious goals, but to deliver real, lasting results that makes the city more livable, more affordable, and more just with uncertainty, fear and confusion, Wayne, now is the time to turn ideas into.
