Mayor Eric Adams announced Oct. 12 a new Humanitarian Emergency Response and Relief Center designed specifically to provide aid to migrant families with children.
According to the mayor, the Center will be located at the Row hotel in Midtown Manhattan and is expected to serve about 200 families. Hizzoner charged that the hotel will be a touch point for arriving asylum seekers, helping people by immediately offering shelter, food, medical care, casework services, and more. The mayor also promises the facility will help ensure they can reach wherever they were originally headed, even if that is not the Big Apple.
“As the numbers of asylum seekers entering New York City continues to increase without an end in sight, the city’s family-focused Humanitarian Emergency Response and Relief Center will soon open to serve families with children and provide them with the care and compassion they deserve. Our team will continue to work with these families and assess if they want to actually stay in New York City and, if not, help them get to their desired destinations,” Mayor Adams said.
“We just got information on that so I can’t really expound on that, I’m still looking at that information now as we speak. I was not privy to this information,” she said on Wednesday afternoon.
