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-...

How can the Mamdani Administration reset how the City works with nonprofits?
We’re hopeful that @mayor.nyc.gov will:
📣 #JustPay human services workers
📣 Ensure full and timely contract payments
📣 Staff City agencies to support nonprofits

Thaiasia Johnson, Program Director, is urging NY leaders to include #DomesticViolence program staff in inflationary wage increases. These workers help 1000s of survivors rebuild their lives. Without fair pay, this vital work is at risk. It’s time to pass S1580/A2590!
