Shout Logo
SHOUT (Supportive Housing Organized and United Tenants) represents tenants and applicants from across New York City, including LGBT people, people with disabilities, people of color, and low income people who are currently and formerly homeless and navigating supportive housing. SHOUT is the first organizing group in New York City created by and for supportive housing tenants and applicants. Supportive Housing has long been presented as the premiere solution to housing insecurity and chronic homelessness, however, the lived experiences of many supportive housing tenants and applicants fall far short of the promise of the supportive housing model. SHOUT was formed to center the experiences of supportive housing tenants and applicants, shifting the balance of power to ensure that supportive housing in New York City lives up to its vision and intent: accessible, stable, and dignified permanent housing that is truly supportive of tenants and applicants.
