New York Times story
Faces of Success
This segment from the PBS program NOW with David Brancaccio was made when we were still called Citizens Advice Bureau.
We sadly note the passing of Edward “Footie” Doyle, who is featured in this video. Before his death, he had lived in his new home for 18 months. He completed a substance abuse program after being placed in housing, and was proud to be living clean and sober. Footie no longer needed to be hospitalized for seizures. Despite a rough start, he was a model client. BronxWorks misses him.

BronxWorks is the driving force behind the 72% decline in street homelessness since 2005.
