The Department of Intergovernmental Relations (IGR) launched a NextGeneration NYCHA Webinar Series on January 12 with a presentation by Director of Management Services Lillian Harris on NYCHA’s new tools and approaches for rent and fee collection.

“This initiative will help us become more effective in collecting rent and identifying ways to better assist residents falling behind by providing access to resources and support,” Ms. Harris said.

Following a PowerPoint presentation, Ms. Harris responded to questions from community liaisons for elected officials.

“Our goal is to bridge communications between NYCHA and elected officials and various stakeholders on issues impacting their constituents,” said IGR Director Brian Honan.

The webinar series of eight presentations includes topics that the legislators indicated are of interest to their constituents. The next presentation, scheduled for March 2, is on NYCHA’s public/private partnerships and its new 501(c)(3) Fund for Public Housing.
