Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso Allocates $125,000 To Support Community Programming At 78 NYCHA Tenant Associations In Brooklyn

BROOKLYN, NY– Yesterday, Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso announced an allocation totaling $125,000 in FY26 discretionary funding to be distributed to 78 NYCHA Tenant Associations (TAs) across the borough. The funding is allocated for general programming support, including family days, backpack giveaways, and other programs for NYCHA residents. Active Brooklyn NYCHA TAs were each awarded up to $3,000. The amount allocated to each development was based on each development’s population. “NYCHA Tenant Associations are the engines of civic life for Brooklyn’s NYCHA developments. With the help of their presidents, NYCHA TAs bring incredible programming that foster community bonds and enrich the lives of NYCHA residents – often with far too little funding,” said Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso. “I am so proud to fund our NYCHA TAs for the last three fiscal years to make sure that they are able to provide enhanced programming, and I extend my gratitude to the TA presidents, TA members, and the NYCHA residents who help foster supportive communities in throughout Brooklyn’s NYCHA developments.” Details of the allocation were announced at an appreciation breakfast for TA presidents at the Brooklyn Public Library’s Brooklyn Heights branch and builds on Borough President Reynoso’s past support for NYCHA tenant associations and residents. Over the last three fiscal years, Borough President Reynoso has allocated a total of $365,000 to NYCHA TAs. “I want to thank Borough President Antonio Reynoso for supporting NYCHA Tenant Associations throughout Brooklyn,” said NYCHA Chief Executive Officer Lisa Bova-Hiatt. “Developments with active and engaged resident leadership always perform better, which is why it is so important that they are recognized. These funds will enable tenant leaders to organize events in their communities and encourage greater participation. I look forward to seeing these resources put to good use at the dozens of Family Day events throughout Brooklyn this summer.”
