Posted on November 21, 2016 by Peter Cook in Times Union Times Union, By Peter Cook The holiday season inspires an annual period of reflection, allowing us all to take stock of what we’re grateful for and to reassess how our actions can shape the world around us. It gives us an opportunity to reflect and renew our commitment to helping the most marginalized group of people: homeless New Yorkers. It’s a commitment that many of us share, including Gov. Andrew Cuomo. We are on the cusp of some real solutions to the problem of homelessness, but we aren’t there yet.
