Safe Horizon CEO Liz Roberts Joins Mayor-elect Mamdani’s Transition Committee on Community Safety

December 4, 2025

We are proud to announce that our CEO, Liz Roberts, has been appointed to serve on the Committee on Community Safety for Mayor-elect Mamdani’s transition team. Liz joined this group understanding that her seat reflects the experiences and needs of the broader survivor community in New York City—a community that includes 1 in 3 New Yorkers.  

We enthusiastically support the incoming administration’s plans to develop the Department of Community Safety—including $40 million in new investment in survivor services—to prioritize solutions for mental health, violence prevention, and crisis response across the city. 

Safety is a human right, and all New Yorkers deserve to be safe. Together, we are excited to turn vision into action with the Mamdani administration and other movement leaders.
