Learning to Work provides mentorship and real-world experience that helps young people reach their full potential. After rallying at the Tweed Courthouse a few weeks ago, our message is clearer than ever: this program is essential. Join us outside City Hall 4/16 @mayor.nyc.gov. #SaveLTW #WeAreLTW

Students are counting on you to #SaveLTW in the Executive Budget, @mayor.nyc.gov. We rallied at the steps of the Tweed Courthouse to show how vital this program is. We know you care, and that’s why we’ll be back outside City Hall 4/16 calling for sustained funding. #SaveLTW #WeAreLTW
#JustPay means #JustPay for ALL human services workers.
Despite this, several programs are left out of receiving critical State funding.
@governor.ny.gov you can cut the red tape preventing thousands from receiving inflation investments — act now!

Learning to Work changes lives—giving young people a second chance and a real path forward. But it needs sustained investment to continue.
We know you care @mayor.nyc.gov, and that’s why we’ll be outside City Hall today at 1PM to make our voices heard. #SaveLTW

Nonprofit human services workers were in Albany demanding a 2.7% investment on **ALL** State human services contracts and passage of Wage Board Legislation.
Back them up and email your legislators to demand **#JustPay** for human services workers: bit.ly/JustPay-Backup-Action @hscny.bsky.social
Our press conference for #JustPay is happening NOW in Albany! Hundreds of workers & supporters are fighting for the wages and funding our sector deserves 💪

Ahead of the blizzard, QCH mobilized to make sure homebound older adults across Queens had fresh meals in hand before the storm hit. ❄️💙
Supervisors, case managers & drivers worked all weekend to coordinate early deliveries — because a snowstorm should never mean an empty table. #QCH50Years
From childcare to housing, @mayor.nyc.gov’s priorities need nonprofits to succeed.
We stand ready to deliver. But we also need real support from City Hall to do so.

The City has relied on nonprofits to perform essential work, all while refusing to #JustPay workers or cover the true cost of services.
@mayor.nyc.gov has the chance to hit reset and start treating nonprofits as the critical partners we’ve always been. www.crainsnewyork.com/op-ed/op-ed-...
