This resolution commends Churches United for Fair Housing (CUFFH), a grassroots advocacy organization focused on housing justice, immigration rights, and economic empowerment, for hosting its 16th Annual Gala on December 9, 2025, at Weylin in Brooklyn, New York. The resolution highlights CUFFH's significant community impact, including its network of over 20,000 members and its work serving working-class, immigrant, and BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) communities across New York City's five boroughs. The legislative body recognizes CUFFH's dedicated efforts to prevent displacement, advance civic engagement, and create systemic change through direct services and long-term organizing strategies. By pausing in its deliberations to commend the organization, the resolution celebrates CUFFH's 16 years of service and its role as a beacon of hope that demonstrates the transformative potential of combining faith, community, and justice. The resolution also includes a provision to transmit an officially engrossed copy of the document to CUFFH as a formal acknowledgment of its important work.
