40 and Still Fighting for the Bronx!
UNHP was founded through the creativity and agility of the community leaders and groups that came together in the ’70s and ’80s to fight the devastation that was spreading in the Bronx. The dedication, persistence, and creativity of the organization and so many of its staff have brought UNHP to this 40th year with 3 major functions—research and advocacy that is utilized by other community organizations, government, lenders, and bank regulators; a neighborhood resource center that assists Bronx residents with housing and personal financial issues; and oversight of hundreds of affordable apartments owned by non-profit housing organizations.
Tribute Post: Honoring the Contributions of Joseph P. Muriana
UNHP is proud to honor Joe Muriana for our 40th anniversary! Joe has shared his skills, goodwill, and passion for the Bronx as a Fordham University administrator, adjunct professor, Bronxite for the past 50 years, community organizer, executive director, and UNHP Board President. He has had significant positive influence on the borough, its people, educational institutions, housing, and businesses through his many years of dedicated service.
