A new nonprofit that transforms the way NYC residents with housing vouchers source and rent available housing.
About us
An innovative new nonprofit that transforms the system by which NYC residents with housing subsidies source and rent available housing. Anthos|Home’s mission is to expedite access to permanent housing for homeless and vulnerable New Yorkers by streamlining the voucher-to-housing process and providing services to tenants and landlords to support housing stability and success. Anthos|Home is a game-changer for New Yorkers who are unhoused or at risk of homelessness—and for the systems that serve them. Our Story: Anthos|Home was founded in 2022 by Laura Lazarus and Leslie Abbey, leaders with decades of experience in government, social service nonprofits, and affordable housing development. Anthos|Home was inspired by old problems, in New York and elsewhere: the growing crisis of homelessness and the systemic challenges of using housing subsidies/vouchers to secure housing. Every year, thousands of vouchers go unused and apartments sit empty, while individuals and families make do in shelters for months or even years. To remedy the problem, Anthos|Home partners with local government, nonprofits, housing providers, and private funders to help voucher holders quickly move into affordable housing. Our model — which is based on the Flexible Housing Subsidy Pool created by Brilliant Corners in Los Angeles — succeeds by easing the risk and administrative burden of housing providers, by helping tenants navigate the voucher and rental landscapes, and by providing ongoing support and assistance to both. In short, Anthos|Home makes every step of the voucher process easier for all involved. Our model has the added benefit of attracting more landlords, thereby increasing the number of affordable housing units available to voucher holding tenants, freeing up government and nonprofit resources to address other aspects of homelessness in New York.

Great news for housing providers! After a 15-year hiatus, the Section 8 housing voucher waitlist has reopened, creating an amazing opportunity for landlords interested in participating in affordable housing assistance programs. This reopening is a pivotal moment for many families and individuals eagerly awaiting the chance to secure stable housing through the voucher program. Anthos|Home is thrilled to work with both voucher holders and landlords to speed housing placements, build strong relationships and communities, and support housing stability and success. The reopening of the housing voucher waitlist couldn't have come at a more crucial time. With the increasing need for affordable housing options and soaring rental prices in many areas, the availability of these vouchers can significantly impact the lives of those in need. #HousingVouchers #AffordableHousing #HousingForAll
