Thank you New York for showing up to march with us at this year’s Queer Liberation March! The energy of the crowd was incredible. Let’s keep this momentum and continue holding our lawmakers accountable. We need our community and our power to fight for liberation for all. ✊ Happy #pride2026!
A real step forward, and it matters. Thank you to @nycmayor for taking action to move us closer to closing #Rikers and finally shrinking its footprint. Seeing these facilities shut down is something advocates and communities, including Housing Works, have fought for over many years. #ShutRikers!

No insurance? We’ve got you covered. We offer primary care, sexual health services, and more, on a sliding scale. Care shouldn’t depend on your ability to pay. That’s been our approach for over three decades, and it’s what NYCGOOD looks like in healthcare. healthcare.housingworks.org
Your Housing Works dispensary purchase last week funded someone's healthcare visit, housing support, or harm reduction services. That's the model we built: quality products, transparent sourcing, and 100% of net proceeds supporting New Yorkers who need it most. NYCGOOD means 🍃 that gives back.
We provide affirming, integrated care for the LGBTQ+ community through healthcare, housing, job training, and more. Our clinics offer services, available to all, regardless of insurance or ability to pay. Visit health.housingworks.org to get started. #CommunityPower #Care #Pride2026
