HOMELESS FAMILY IN NEW YORK DENIED SERVICE
Hello my name is Laticia I am a mother of 4. Im homeless in New York City. I was released from a Domestic Violence Shelter, to be placed in a scattered sight. When I arrived with my family we were given an apartment with blood stains and urine on all bed mold spores on the other mattres. Roaches, windows didnt open you name it bed bugs etc. The next day my caseworker came deemed the place unfit. But they would not transfer me. She sent me back to PATH HRA They denied me services at 11pm at night a metro card and made us leave the building. I am in an unsafe borough for the man who almost took my lifes family found out where I am. By law I was supposed to transfered asap. I have no income besides my daughters survivor check $500 every 28th of the month we have not eating, our clothing ruined from the bed bugs I reached out to Mayoral Canidates, Advocates, Local news anyone to help advocate for me & no one has assisted. Im a wonderful mother who is dealing with a 13yr old daughter who seen her father take his life on her birthday. She cuts herself now has social anxiety. My son has tried to be strong but broke down. I need any assistance. Sleeping with my children in a hallway is nothing any parent wants to do. I need any type of donations for my family clothing, food, linens anything. Please Help Be My Voice
Why is this important?
Domestic Violence Agencies Not Assisting and Following Proper Protocal for myself and my children. I have had to go to every agency advocate office & recieved no assistance. We now have no clothing, bed linens, wash clothes cleaning supplies etc. Due to the nature of the Apartment. I have all things photographed and all conversations recorded as me & my mentally ill daughter and son were denied rights.
