New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced Monday that he is limiting shelter stays for migrant families with children to 60 days, bidding to ease pressure on a city housing system overwhelmed by a large influx of asylum seekers over the past year.
The Democrat's office said it will begin sending 60-day notices to migrant families with children in shelters to seek other places to live. It also will provide “intensified casework services” to help families secure new housing, according to a news release.
