In this episode of the Get Stuff Done-Cast, Mayor Adams speaks with three officials who are guiding our city's mission to provide resources to families and individuals seeking asylum in this historic moment.
Manuel Castro, Commissioner of the Mayor's Office of Immigration Affairs, knows the problem firsthand: he was a DREAMer; Zachary Iscol, Commissioner of NYC Emergency Management, a former Marine, uses his experience to establish relief centers in record time; and Dr. Ted Long, Senior Vice President for Ambulatory Care and Population Health at NYC Health + Hospitals, who led NYC Test & Trace Corps during the COVID-19 pandemic, helps us comprehend what it's like to innovate in unprecedented times.
“We are all chasing the same thing: the American Dream.” – Mayor Eric Adams
