Posted on July 18, 2018 by Nikita Stewart in The New York Times The New York Times, By Nikita Stewart New York City is consolidating its system of rental subsidies after four years of complaints from landlords wary of accepting vouchers and homeless people who have tried to use the vouchers to move out of shelters.

Some are limited to families with children. Others are for older people.
