Banks asks whether NYCHA community centers, resident associations, or youth programs received funding for watch parties or soccer clinics. Honda says she can get exact numbers and notes the city resourced HHS shelters for watch parties.

Chris Banks

Were NYCHA community centers or resident associations or youth programs offered funding or other resources to organize local watch parties, soccer clinics, or related programming?

Maya Honda

I can get you exact numbers on that.

Maya Honda

I will note that we resourced HHS to host watch parties at the city's remaining asylum seeker shelters and eight shelters for families with children.

Chris Banks

Okay, excellent.
