In NYC, raising a child means choices no parent should face: work or child care, food or rent, opportunity or survival. In this episode, @childrensaidnyc.bsky.social's Phoebe Boyer breaks down what poverty really costs families—and what it takes to restore choice. robinhood.org/news/what-fu...

We agree with John C. Liu & Jo Anne Simon. @governor.ny.gov & the NYS Legislature should make key changes to the Foundation Aid formula, including adding a weight for students who are homeless and updating the Regional Cost Index from 2006! https://loom.ly/1yaTaRs
Opinion: New York must stop shortchanging schools with yesterday’s data
The state’s Foundation Aid formula must be tweaked to ensure New York City schools are getting enough funding.
