serving the Big Apple say they can't pay their bills because the money from city grants is just too late.
"You went from being a member of the Bloods being sent to jail for armed robbery and attempted murder to getting a BA soon and going for your master's," CBS2 pointed out to Moshe Canty, assistant director of community programs for the Center for Community Alternatives. Glenn Rodriguez, a co-director of the organization, explained,"On any given year the city owes us upwards of $2 million to $3 million and it usually takes anywhere from six months to a year to get reimbursed. It definitely impacts because we're having to take out loans. Part of the money is going to interest, which is funding that should be going into these critical services that we're providing.
"I do believe that the bureaucracy is the red tape. The unnecessary hurdles that have to be overcome for us to be able to get the funding is just ... it's too long of a process. It could potentially save lives, but because of the bureaucracy, it is actually preventing people from getting the help imminently," Canty said.
