Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced his support of the Just Home housing project from the NYC Health + Hospitals Jacobi campus on Monday.
The Morris Park housing plan aims to provide housing to the formerly incarcerated with medical needs.

Nearby neighbors have
expressed concern in the past, asking for assisted housing for their elderly neighbors instead of the formerly incarcerated.
