Hurricane Sandy left New York devastated. And no thanks to mold, that devastation continues up to this day.
The residents of Staten Island are among the thousands of people in NYC badly affected by the said superstorm. They are also some of those who could attest how mold doubled their problems and prevented them from completely recovering.
But as they said, the city government is not giving them enough help to solve the mold problem. And so, amid their struggle to completely get rid of black mold, they paraded along the Midland Beach neighborhood. Led by the group Make the Road New York, the said march was a call for more help to clean up the spores.
However, Peter Spencer, the spokesman for the city’s Office of Housing Recovery Operations, said that New York City has the most active anti-mold programs. He stated that it is the only municipality that offers free mold remediation services to 2,000 low-income homeowners and renters. And as he added, only 1,200 people are signed up for it.

“The small demonstration coincided with the release of a survey detailing what the group’s members say is an inadequate response by the administration of Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg to help residents remove mold from their homes.
Among the 690 people surveyed in the Rockaways and on Staten Island, more than half had visible mold in their homes, according to the report, and a vast majority of those people had already tried to remediate the mold, only to have it return.”
