Donate today to help LIHS launch its new advocacy platform and fight housing discrimination. Every dollar counts toward our $8,000 goal!
At Long Island Housing Services, we stand with you in the fight against housing discrimination and hate. Together, we’ve confronted alarming increases in hate incidents and systemic inequities across Long Island. And we’re not stopping now.
What’s at Stake
