? Celebrating 40 Years of Impact ? This week, Safe Horizon Streetwork Project celebrated its 40th anniversary and closed out the week by ringing the closing bell at Nasdaq, a powerful moment in honor of Homeless Youth Awareness Month. Our CEO, Liz Roberts, highlighted the incredible work Streetwork has done over four decades to serve and empower homeless youth in NYC. From providing safe spaces to connecting youth with vital resources, Streetwork Project has remained steadfast in its mission to offer hope, support, and a brighter future. Here's to 40 years of changing lives and continuing the fight to end youth homelessness. ?? #StreetworkProject #HomelessYouthAwarenessMonth #40YearsStrong #NYCYouth #Nasdaq

Great op-ed in the Albany Times Union by Safe Horizon CEO Liz Roberts and New York City Anti-Violence Project's Audacia Ray about the need for Governor Hochul to sign the SAFE Shelter Act into law. We desperately need to increase domestic violence shelter capacity for single adult survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, trafficking & other crimes. https://lnkd.in/dfZeGtAW

Sometimes there are hard days at work…and then there are days like this! So proud and grateful to be with my Safe Horizon colleagues to ring the closing bell at Nasdaq and highlight the wonderful work of our Streetwork Project. What a fun way to celebrate our team and raise awareness about youth homelessness in NYC.

I had an amazing conversation recently with Monique de Maio exploring what we can all do to address domestic violence in our communities!

We're proud to celebrate our Streetwork Project team and recognize a homeless youth awareness month. On Friday, Safe Horizon had the honor of ringing the NASDAQ closing bell to raise awareness for homeless youth and our supportive services. Huge thank you to NASDAQ! What a day for the books! #safehorizon #NasdaqNasdaq #homelessyouthawareness #survivors

Yesterday, I shared my powerful conversation with Liz Roberts, CEO of Safe Horizon, on the latest episode of the Possibilities Podcast. Today, I want to take that discussion a step further with a blog that highlights key takeaways and actionable insights from our interview... As women in leadership, we have a unique opportunity to advocate for survivors, implement supportive workplace policies, and partner with organizations like Safe Horizon to truly make a difference. This article explores how we can all contribute—whether through leadership, time, resources, or advocacy. The reality is stark: 1 in 30 New Yorkers have had contact with Safe Horizon in the past year. This speaks to the immense need for community and workplace support for survivors of violence and trauma. But together, we can create safer, more supportive spaces for those who need it most. I invite you to read the article and reflect on what steps you can take to help break the cycle of violence. Whether you’re a leader, an advocate, or simply someone who cares, every action counts. Let’s turn possibilities into action! #SupportSurvivors #SafeHorizon #WomenInLeadership #WorkplaceSupport #Advocacy #PossibilitiesPodcast #IntentionalLeadership #BreakingTheCycle
