“While the number of asylum seekers has slowed in recent weeks, we are still seeing a steady stream of single adult women and adult families arriving in New York City in need of assistance,” Adams said in a statement. “The city needs to continue to be prepared to meet the ongoing humanitarian crisis,” said Anne Williams-Isom, deputy mayor for Health and Human Services, which will oversee the relief center.
The influx of new migrants has strained a shelter system that was already operating at near capacity and is threatening to strain city social services, the mayor said last month.
