Nearly 50% of the funding that supports every family in Win shelters comes from TANF. Allowing this freeze to stand would have destabilized housing, child care, and basic services for thousands of families overnight.

While the case continues, we are grateful that this decision protects essential services and gives families the stability they need to move forward.

This cruel $10 billion funding freeze directly targets New York’s most vulnerable populations: homeless mothers and their children.

These cuts will be catastrophic to the work that Win does every day to help families with children break the cycle of poverty, and we thank the AG’s courageous leadership as we work to remedy this crisis.
