Q&A

Chair Hudson asks about site-level safety metrics and Tillery staffing

New York City Council · Oct 28, 2026 · starts 1:36:05 · 1 min 8 sec

Hudson asks what site-level metrics DHS tracks. DHS says incidents, complaints, and grievances. Dalton says integrated data could show Tillery improvements. DHS does not know current Tillery staffing.

Crystal Hudson

I have a few more questions about this specifically, and then I'm going to go into round two for my colleagues.

Crystal Hudson

What site-level metrics does the agency track to understand shelter safety?

Crystal Hudson

Thank you for the question.

Crystal Hudson

At site level, we track incidents, we track complaints, we track grievances.

Crystal Hudson

Thank you.

Erin Dalton

If I may add, I mean, I do think as we get this data in order, you could see with Tillery that we could provide a whole set of measures that are all going in the same direction.

Erin Dalton

And that gives at least me confidence that there's important improvements happening there.

Erin Dalton

Hopefully we can add additional measures to that, including, again, client experience and regular feedback from clients on their experience in the system.

Crystal Hudson

And do you know how many staff are on site at Tillery now compared to last year?

Erin Dalton

Thank you for the question.

Erin Dalton

I don't.

Crystal Hudson

Okay.

Crystal Hudson

Thank you for the answer.
