Congrats BHS! This year we saw our first RAPP Peer Leaders from BHS graduateD and it was great! We know these young leaders will continue to shape the world around them.
How many programs will have to close next year because @NYCMayor won’t pay human services workers livable wages? The City’s poverty wages have caused staff turnover and program closures. We need #JustPay NOW to stay open next year!
Our own Tatiana Stewart, a youth counselor makes the case: Without human services, the City would lose a valuable partner in carrying out essential services that it is mandated to provide. @NYCMayor YOU need us - so #JUSTPAY us! #DayWithoutHumanServices
On a #DayWithoutHumanServices, we stand with human services organizations who are pausing services. @NYCMayor has ignored demands to pay our workers livable wages - we need #JustPay NOW to keep programs open next year! @NYCComptroller
125,000 workers and 8.5 million New Yorkers are impacted by today’s #DayWithoutHumanServices. As staff turnover forces more programs to close, this might become the reality EVERYDAY if @NYCMayor doesn’t #JustPay human services workers in the City budget!
More than 6,000 people rallied for #JustPay today. Can you imagine it? This sea of New Yorkers are NYC's most important partners in the current housing crisis & all they want is a 6.5% COLA to ensure a livable wage. Please make this happen, @NYCMayor. #NoMorePovertyWages
📢OVER 6,000 people showed up at our rally and 100 organizations participated in our #DayWithoutHumanServices!
@NYCMayor look at this crowd👇
You can’t keep ignoring the voices of human services workers - fund #JustPay and a 6.5% COLA NOW!
We can’t imagine our city without the human services workers who strengthen our communities everyday with essential services. On a #DayWithoutHumanServices, let’s remind @NYCMayor that they deserve #JustPay and a 6.5% COLA in the budget! #ADayWithoutNMIC
