Mayor Bill de Blasio threw a welcome home party for one veteran on the Lower East Side on Tuesday afternoon.
Military veteran Jocelyn Miller has been living in a homeless shelter for some time now. When the NYC Department of Veterans’ Services learned of her situation, the organization went about finding this hero a place to live.
Setting up a renovated one-bedroom apartment on Grand Street, Commissioner of NYC Veterans’ Services James Hendon and de Blasio threw Miller a housewarming party, complete with balloons and a “Thank you for your service” sign to celebrate her welcome home.
