As the population of refugees and asylum seekers staying at Woodlawn’s repurposed Wadsworth Elementary School continues to grow, the city has ramped up its resettlement efforts.

Biden’s COVID-19 rescue package reportedly favors NY restaurants
President Joe Biden’s proposed $1.9 trillion COVID-19 rescue package reportedly includes $25 billion for the restaurant industry with a large proportion of it reportedly going to New York restaurants,
the New York Posthas learned.
Details of this provision are still in the works, a source told
the Post, but restaurants could receive up to $10 million in grants that they wouldn’t need to pay back unless they shut down after receiving the grant. At that point, the grant would turn into a low-interest loan, but the terms for that haven’t been revealed. There’s also no minimum loss threshold for businesses to apply, and the grant amounts will be calculated based on lost revenue since the start of the pandemic-related shutdowns.
