For people experiencing homelessness in New York City, getting a housing voucher like CityFHEPS should be the golden ticket to securing a permanent home. But often, that ticket leads to a dead end. The demand for affordable housing far outpaces supply, and even when apartments are available, families face overwhelming barriers—complex requirements, complicated processes, and landlords reluctant to accept vouchers.
Enter Anthos|Home, a Robin Hood nonprofit community partner who is disrupting the status quo. In just two years, they’ve helped nearly 500 households get on the express track to move into a permanent home—and they’re just getting started. Anthos|Home isn’t waiting for systemic change; they’re making change happen. By partnering with landlords, streamlining the voucher process, and providing ongoing support to both tenants and property owners, they’re proving that housing vouchers can—and should—work.
In this episode, hosts Kevin Thompson and Crystal Cooper sit down with Laura Lazarus, CEO and Co-Founder of Anthos|Home, to unpack how her team is cutting through red tape, tackling the housing crisis head-on, and reshaping what’s possible for families with vouchers.
Tune in for insightful discussions on shaping policies to uplift communities and #FightPoverty. Subscribe for more episodes wherever you listen to your podcasts.
