🎒Last year, 300K NYC public school students were chronically absent. That’s 1 in 3 kids — and half of foster youth – missing more than 10% of class days.

As we start a new year, our CEO Jeremy Kohomban showed how we are tackling this crisis and bringing students back to class. @usatoday.com

For too long the #nonprofit sector + our workers have been an afterthought to City gov. A new Mayor means a new chance to change the narrative + transform the systems keeping our orgs, workforce, + communities down.

Watch @hsany.bsky.social's Mayoral Candidate Chats to hear their plans.

Every year, hundreds of young people in NY age out of foster care with few housing options and little support. Nationally, 46% experience homelessness before 26.

But it doesn’t have to be this way 🧵

@jessicaramosqns.bsky.social & @votejgr.bsky.social spent a week living on the avg. human services wage of just $20/hour.

They agree: nonprofit human services workers deserve nothing less than a 7.8% investment on ALL State human services contracts. #WeCantWait #JustPay www.amny.com/opinion/help...
