community forum to discuss homelessness in greenpoint
TRANSCRIPT
Please join us to discuss how our community can help those who are homeless in Greenpoint as well as the possibility of The Church of the Messiah being a place for overnight shelter from the winter cold. In attendance will be Assembly Member Joe Lentol, Steven Levin’s Office, Common Ground, Dept of Homeless Services officials, and Amy Kienzle, pastor at Messiah. You are invited to ask questions and voice your ideas.
This event is being organized, in part, due to the recent death of a homeless man in the park. The McGolrick Park Neighborhood Alliance is hoping to help facilitate a discussion about homelessness in our community and find ways in which we can all live together safely.
Everyone is encouraged to attend:
Thursday, December 4th, 7PM
Church of the Messiah, 129 Russell Street
