Learning to Work changes lives, but without sustained investment programs could close. UNH stands with our colleagues who are headed to City Hall today to call on @mayor.nyc.gov to ask for baselined funding for LTW. We know you care, please #SaveLTW #WeAreLTW

Federal cuts is threatening food access for millions of New Yorkers. The State budget can change that. UNH is proud to stand with @votejgr.bsky.social, Senator Gustavo Rivera, and 110+ orgs in demanding #SNAP4ALL in this year’s state budget. 🌽 empirereportnewyork.com/state-budget...

UNH joined @speakermenin.bsky.social + partners to ensure that all New Yorkers are counted for the 2030 Census. An accurate census means equitable representation, funding, and resources. The time to invest in outreach is now! @sromalewski.bsky.social @jeffwice.bsky.social @bklynlibrary.bsky.social

The War Room became the Play Room as UNH joined @ny4childcare.bsky.social in Albany! Governor Hochul made a historic investment in child care, but the work is not over. We must ensure Pre-K and 3-K are available statewide and we support child care workers who make this possible. Let’s get it done!

Immigrant communities in our city are under attack. UNH is raising our voice to say: You belong here, no matter where you’re from.

@unhny.bsky.social represents settlement houses across our city reaching over 800K New Yorkers so I'm proud to have their support on COPA! They recognize that housing insecurity is the most pressing issue facing most New Yorkers and that COPA can offer a way to protect affordable housing.

The Governor is missing a critical opportunity to support the children and families at settlement houses across our state.

The UNH team LOVES #SNAP4ALL! As one of our legislative priorities for FY27, we’re working diligently to pass the bill and make sure no New Yorker goes hungry. 👉https://www.nyequityadvocates.org/snapforallny

Congratulations to all the incredible UNH & Paramount College Scholarship recipients being celebrated tonight! We’re grateful to honor your hard work, ambition, and bright futures. Thank you Paramount for your generous partnership and commitment to supporting the next generation of leaders.

The City Council must invest in aging and ensure older New Yorkers have the support they need to thrive. Older adults deserve to age with dignity, not be left behind. Read UNH’s full testimony submitted to the City Council: assets.nationbuilder.com/unhny/pages/...

UNH is grateful that the FY26 Executive Budget includes critical restorations for child care, but the job isn’t finished until all families have access to the care they need. New Yorkers deserve a truly universal, full day child care system.

Research shows that afterschool professionals make a profound difference in the lives of young people. It’s time to reflect that value with funding. We must commit to increasing base rates in the FY26 budget for COMPASS Elementary to $4900 and for SONYC middle school programs to $4150. #APAW

It's an important election year in NYC. UNH is sharing 5 Ideas for a Better NYC with 265 candidates — from Mayor to City Council — and we invite you to do the same. Let’s build a stronger city together. 👇 www.unhny.org/five_ideas_s...
