I would like to note again that written testimony, which will be reviewed in full by committee staff, may be submitted to the record

Crystal Hudson

up to 72 hours after the close of this hearing by emailing testimony at council.nyc.gov.

Crystal Hudson

And I think what we have seen here today is not only that, of course, we already know we have so much more work to do in creating safe, secure, and dignified places for people to live who are experiencing homelessness.

Crystal Hudson

Um

Crystal Hudson

But we have to prioritize the experiences, the lived experiences of those who are in the shelter system and not just rely on, you know, policies, procedures and laws that exist on the books.

Crystal Hudson

And so with that, I just want to thank everybody again for your testimony.

Crystal Hudson

And with that, I will adjourn today's hearing.
