NYC Council diverting $1.2M in unspent city funds to public-private initiative providing migrant aid

As New York City continues to contend with a staggering number of migrants who’ve been arriving here for nearly a year, Council Speaker Adrienne Adams on Wednesday announced a $2.2 million public-private initiative to help nonprofits on the frontlines of the crisis continue providing a suite of services to the migrants.

The council will be funding the initiative, “Welcome NYC,” to the tune of $1.2 million, which was originally allocated to the city Department of Youth and Community Development (DYCD) through the Fiscal Year 2023 budget passed last June, but is projected not to be spent before the start of the next fiscal year. The council must pass a so-called “transparency resolution” during its scheduled Thursday stated meeting in order to move the funding around.
