Super Storm Sandy Recovery Briefing Scheduled at Furman Center

The Furman Center for Real Estate and Urban Policy at New York University (NYU) and the Moelis Institute for Affordable Housing Policy will hold a policy breakfast, “Rethinking Rehousing: The Experiences of New York City’s Vulnerable Households After Sandy,” on March 15. The breakfast will be held at 8:30am at NYU Law School’s Lipton Hall, located at 108 West 3rd Street, New York, NY.  Scheduled panelists are Rosanne Haggerty of Community Solutions, Kevin Sullivan of the Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of NY, and Robert Ezrapour of Artimus Construction. Ingrid Gould Ellen of the Furman Center for Real Estate and Urban Policy will moderate the session. Panelists will discuss lessons learned from Super Storm Sandy and “what government, the civic sector, and the non-profit community can do to be better prepared to re-house low income families quickly and safely in future emergencies.” A second breakfast panel to continue the discussion will be held on a to-be-determined date in the spring. Readers should RSVP at http://bit.ly/X4A1Jy.
