- $132,631 spent. There has been a myriad of new developments in the areas surrounding ENF on Rogers Avenue from Newkirk Avenue to Clarkson Avenue. The units range from 60 to 500+ and the developers are contacting ENF for assistance in filling the apartments. However, the rent is approximately $4,000 per month for 2 bedrooms according to the statistics in the area, where the majority of residents are low to moderate income front line workers who are unable to afford rent this high. ENF is soliciting programs/assistance from government agencies to offset the cost associated for rental of these apartments. Zip code 11226 will soon face with possible tenant crisis as tenants have been in the office on a daily basis seeking low income housing assistance.
- $53,570 spent. Since the beginning of last year, immigration in the country has been a constant nightmare. Our office has been inundated with request for different type of immigration services, ranging from family sponsorship, affidavit of support, deportation, family reunification, fianc visas and several other types of visas. Over 500,000 migrants (Haitians, Venezuelan, Cubans and Hondurans) under the Biden TPS program are now facing removal and this has resulted in an unimaginable crisis situation for them and demand for our services. In the last few months, the situation has been getting worse because of the new administrations mass deportation program. Many of our clients are afraid to send their children to school or go to medical appointments. Some with permanent residency status (green cards) are afraid to travel back home. Our office is constantly on the lookout for the best ways to service our clients needs.
