Organizing & Campaigns

Joe Loonam (he/him) got involved with VOCAL-NY as a high school student in a misguided effort to stay out of trouble. After studying the history of community organizing in America at Hampshire College, he completed an apprenticeship in community organizing at the Riders Alliance and was the lead organizer at the Crown Heights Tenant Union. In 2019, he was thrilled to return to VOCAL-NY, where he has worked alongside leaders in the homelessness union to advance campaigns to increase the supply of affordable housing, create and improve rental assistance programs, and end the harassment of homeless New Yorkers on the street.  He is a lifelong resident of Bay Ridge, Brooklyn.
