Coalition for the Homeless: www.coalitionforthehomeless.org/get-help/know-your-rights/voting-rights 

If you are experiencing homelessness, you can register and vote. Your home address should be where you stay at night, whether it is a street corner, shelter, or any other location. This decides where you vote. Your mailing address does not have to be your home/residential address, and can be the address of a shelter, outreach center, or other place willing to receive your mail.

NYCLU: www.nyclu.org

If you are in jail for a misdemeanor or on probation, you can register and vote. As of May 2021, all New Yorkers after a felony conviction can, upon release from prison, immediately register to vote without special documentation. Learn more about your rights.
