RALEIGH, N.C. — According to a report by the New York Post, five families that were homeless in New York were sent just to Raleigh, arriving with a big check that covered their rent for a year.
According to the newspaper, the city of New York sent thousands of homeless people to destinations all over the country, including destinations in North Carolina.
The city covered their transportation costs and provided them with enough money for housing.
Five families were sent to Raleigh as part of the New York program.
But John Luckett, the chief executive officer for Raleigh Rescue Mission, said he was not aware of such a program.
