Taxpayer-Funded Nonprofit Teaches Homeless How to ‘Squat’ in City
The New York Post is reporting on a taxpayer-funded nonprofit in the Bronx that is giving a crash-course in “squatting.”
The group, called “Picture the Homeless,” has targeted city-owned buildings in particular. Andres Perez, who “teaches” the course, said, “The best properties are city-owned properties or bank-owned properties…They warehouse these properties. They’re sitting on them.”
The organization has received $240,000 in taxpayer funds over the last five years.
