NYCHA

The New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) is the largest public housing authority in North America. With 1 in 17 New Yorkers living in NYCHA developments, NYCHA is a crucial part of New York City’s waste goals.

Through new infrastructure, education, and engagement, NYCHA & DSNY will continue to improve waste management at all developments.
