Content from Ali Forney article
Placing this (unsourced) content from the Ali Forney article here:
The "Ali Forney Drop-in Center" is the entry point to the homeless youth program, offering street outreach, case management, primary medical care, HIV testing, mental health assessment and treatment, food and showers, an employment assistance program, and referral to its housing programs. The "AFC Emergency Housing Program" offers a scattered-site emergency housing program with sites in Manhattan and Brooklyn. AFC offers temporary housing in safe, staff-supervised homelike apartments. Youths are able to reside for up to six months while they are assisted in moving to more permanent housing. The Bea Arthur Residence, an 18-bed residence in Manhattan for homeless LGBT youth, is also operated by the Ali Forney Center.
